I only have one copy of WinXP on a Dell that came with the machine and it's screwed up; the WinXP disk says I have the wrong code even though the code is printed on the machine. Dell ignores my queries. Ran "keyfinder.com" and tried the codes it provided. They didn't work either. Don't want to dual boot on this Dell because of problems that have accumulated over the several years I've had it and don't want to buy a new copy of WinXP. I'll keep playing with the Linux distros and eventually learn my way around them. Thanks, Gerry ---------------------------------------- From: "Wonko the Sane" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
