Hi there,
This is a question in related to a work machine. It's a rather dodgy Advent PC. We were never supplied with a windows disk and I've got a new SSD in there that I want to get Windows on. We have other Windows disk about so I can install fine, but I need to find the CD key.
I have used some software which claims my key is X and I've then tried to boot from CD and install using the key the software gave me but it got rejected. Which I assume must mean it's not found the correct key? The software I tried is called Belarc Advisor.
Help appreciated.
