Hi guys,

Have landed an HP D7100 desktop with XP pro COA sticker, but no OS....

Options?

TIA Tim..



My understanding is that this is quite likely to be an OEM license, and you'll need the corresponding CD from HP to reinstall it. Some of these are activated by detecting a code in the BIOS, rather than via the retail activation process. HP help is very good in my experience, so drop them an email.
