You can use a standard Windows OEM installation cd, such as the one |
| 12 |
that comes in this package <http://www.ebuyer.com/product/114048> with |
| 13 |
any Windows OEM license sticker. |

If the sticker bears Dell, Compaq, Advent &c branding, this is |
| 16 |
irrelevant to the actual number on the sticker. You can copy a |
| 17 |
friend's CD and use that - I avoid manufacturer branded "restore" CDs, |
| 18 |
however. |
