    I purchased a netbook (LG X120) which had Windows XP Home Greek ULCPC installed.

    I formatted everything (included the LG recovery partition).I have all the drivers though.

    Now i want to install Windows XP Home English.

    Can you suggest me which version to download in order to use the licensed key in the back of the netbook?

    Regards

    PS:Great forum, glad that i registered!

    It is indeed CRC:8D3A3465.
    You say the key is intergrated in the cd;will i be able to download via windows update?
    What do you mean the key in the back of my netbook is OEM COA?In which cases i need it?
    Windows XP Pro run with same "speed" as the Home edition in a netbook?

    Sorry for asking these things,believe me i'm trying to read forum's posts for my case.


    Regards

    The only one available for your machine is WINDOWS.XP.PRO.SP3.32-BIT.(X86).LG-8D3A3465.OEM so you either downoad that and use it or find WINDOWS.XP.HOME.SP3.32-BIT OEM or Retail and convert it to OEM SLP so you need to start reading the stickies.
