Install CD
What would happen if I accidentally
 put my XP install CD from my compaq laptop into my Compaq desktop running win98se. Would it work?

 be violating the EULA, and during activation you would not be able to activate your illegal installation of XP.Oh and by the way, discussions of bypassing software EULAs are not permitted on this site, in case you accidentally missed the Rules you can find them here: http://forum.pcmech.com/rules.php |

Actually it would probably not even install - you most likely have a restore CD, not a generic XP.

ok, not trying to step on any toes.
 Alright, so I go out and buy XP. How will it run on a 500mhz with 512 RAM? I using it as a server now and I just seem to be having compatibility issues with my two laptops with XP. |
