  • I have lost my genuine Windows XP Professional SP2 ver. 2002 OEM CD but I still have the key. I have another four OEM CDs of genuine Windows XP Professional SP2 ver. 2002 with their keys. Can lost OEM CD key work if I install OS through other OEM CD?

  • You shouldn't have any problems so long as the CD's are for the same version and edition of Windows (i.e. XP, Pro), and the same channel (OEM or Retail)

    No - I do not work for Microsoft, or any of its contractors.
