I want to know how to get a real windows xp OS because the product under my laptop key is always saved for me and is a legitimate product but I can't get windows because it was obviously preinstalled and no CD was given to me with the package.

  How can I get back Windows to use with my product key on my WIN sticker below my laptop.

  Hello

  First of all, it is very strange that recovery CD is not delivered with your laptop. It's hard to believe, but anything is possible. As you know after buying a new product, it is very important to check all orders sent with it and if something is missing, you must call the local as soon as possible and not to wait a year.

  Sorry but this key code belongs to original recovery image and you can't use it with every installation of Windows XP Home edition CD. In your case, there are two options:
  -You can buy the CD of facilities Microsoft original WXP (with the key correctly code) or
  -Contact the partner of service allowed in your country and order the new CD from recovery for your laptop model.

  All that s!

  Bye and good luck!
