    ok, I am needing to reinstall windows on a new hard drive I got but I never got a boot disc with this computer/windows xp I got but I have the serial key. I do have a older version of Windows XP version 1.1 boot disc that I got with my last computer that I got rid of and dont have the serial key to no more (the HD that it was installed on has been erased/formated).

    Now can I use the serial key from my current windows XP with that older version?

    And/or can I use my serial key with a downloaded version of Windows XP?
