Hi guys--its been quite a while since ive been here--forgot my loging info so i had to resign up. Anyway.... I'll try and be brief. I put together a computer for the kids and instead of waitng to get a new windows XP disk and activation key--i used my windows disk (its a Dell XP home disk) to install windows there. When i get the new disk and keys, do I have to fromat the drive and reinstall windows using their new disk and keys--or can I just use the new keys to activate and leave everything as is?

Thanks guys
