Comment:

I have a HP 9870 and it came with ME on it. When I was going to college I bought a version of Windows XP Pro from them and installed it and registered it with Microsoft. Now I can't find the CD's. I need to reformat my computer since I have not done so in a very long time. I retrieved the product key from my computer using Magical Jelly Bean But don't how to get a copy of windows pro.

I believe the XP Pro installation CD from MSDN Academic Alliance store at school and the retail establishment are the same kind. In that case, borrow the CD from whoever have it and use the product key you retrieved from the computer. i_Xp/VistaUser
