I work at a small computer repair store, and we have been having an influx of users with older Windows XP (original, SP1, SP2, and SP3). Is there anywhere I could download OEM.iso's? Available Windows XP images are all retail. Need to install the Windows XP SP3 version without initially typing in. How to download and activate original Microsoft Windows Profesional XP SP3. And search for a Windows XP Pro OEM ISO. Sometimes people forget to download all.

So the title says it all for the most part. We are looking to either donate/sell some of our old PCs. However, the only restoration disks that we have for windows XP are home built disks that have a lot of company information including our volume license keys cooked into them. So we are now in need of a windows XP pro SP3 OEM disk or an ISO. I have tried using a technet download iso, however it does not seem to work with OEM licenses. All of the machines have the COA, however we really need this disk and i would rather not take the torrent route.

If someone has an ISO lying around, please let me know it would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

We have already donated around 80 workstations and other related items through the Dell Reconnect Program at a local Goodwill location. They get refurbished and sold through Goodwill to those who may not otherwise be able to afford a computer. Anything that can't be refurbished gets properly recycled. We have no local recycling program so its an easy way for us to dispose of old equipment without impacting the environment and someone in need may benefit. Just pull the hard drive first and make a clock out of them or something.

If you are still wanting to sell them yourselves then properly wipe them and throw Ubuntu or Mint on them. Xylems92 wrote: smjain wrote: You'd need to have the matching vendor OEM also.

A Dell OEM XP disc likely won't work on an HP. Thats interesting. It doesn't seem to be that way in windows 7 or 8.

Can anyone else verify this? If this is the case, then i will just end up going with JMarks suggestion. I have seen this a couple times with XP however there are workarounds. One of the best is a copy of the XP for Refurbished PCs ISO or disk.

A second person briefed on the recording said men could be heard beating Khashoggi. The disappearance of Khashoggi during a visit to his country's consulate in Istanbul raises a dark question for anyone who dares criticise governments or speak out against those in power: Will the world have their back? The journalist has had long-standing ties to the Saudi royal family, but has written critically of the current government and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Ultimately the no OS option is probably still your best route to go. Not only will you have trouble with some HP CDs not working with Dell etc, but different OEM codes will only work with certain discs, (or more correctly, each release of disc will only work with a certain range of OEM codes). Over the years I've had many issues where the code on the COA would not work with the install CD I had, and I would have to get the customer to find the original CD or sell them a new OS, (or computer). It's a pain in the butt.

When I get rid of machines I do a security erase and donate with either a blank hard drive or Ubuntu installed. Wrote: Xylems92 wrote: smjain wrote: You'd need to have the matching vendor OEM also.

Using the wrong brand installs fine, but asks for the COA because the BIOS check fails. OP - What brand PCs do you have, anyway? Acers and HPs To be more specifics Some Acer Acerpower FH and some HP DX2300 and DX 2200.
