Hi David,

Do you have an MSDN Universal subscription? If so, you should be able to download an ISO from the site.

>Due to some hardware problems, I had to move my hard drive (with Windows XP Professional installed) into another computer. Of course, it won't start, since the hard drive controller is different, and so forth. So, I started down the path of least resistance and did a repair install from CD.

>The problem is that the only CD I had in hand was a 120-day XP Professional Trial version (without its folder and product key, which are in storage in Atlanta). I do have a CD folder with a good, valid Product key for the full Windows XP Professional (missing its matching cd, which must also be in storage in Atlanta).

>Yep, you guessed it -- using the 120-day trial CD with a full product key does not work. Go figure.

>If anyone has a bright idea that might help me get this 120-day trial version installed for now (other than a 16-hour roundtrip drive to Atlanta), feel free to contact me by email with your solution. :-)
