O/S for new build PC
I'm building my first PC . Can someone tell me if I can use my restore disk from my home PC ( I have XP & Vista disk) as my O/S on my new built PC or do I have to buy and install new software.
Thanks |

A restore disc from a name brand machine will only work with that machine. For a new build, you'll need to buy a new copy of Windows.
