I'm trying to reinstall xp pro on a aspire 5100...

Stupidly, I used a copy of xp that I had no key code for thinking I could get the code provided on the certificate of laptop. The installation went well until the moment enter the code which does not accept the software.  Now, I can't start without him restart installing same xp even when I try to boot from another dvd and I'm stuck at halfway through the xp installation... help

Hi lostboi,

You will not be able to use the product key from one computer to another.

·         Who is the manufacturer of the laptop?

·         Do you have any CD recovery or partition of recovery on the laptop?

Because the installation is at halfway, there is no way you can restore. In addition, you cannot continue with it that you don't have the correct product key.

You can check if you have the recovery CD or a recovery on the laptop to start the process all over partition. If none is available, you may need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop.
