    Hello Tom, nice talking to you !  

 TW> IF I was working with a "Pre-Installed" version like you I "may" have
 TW> done it but I have to FIGHT the Re-Activation thing.

        It is not a fight, Tom. If you start from a clean HD, the two
  .wpa files are not there and MS will honour your activation as for a
  new system. I know, I have done it a few times now for my own use
  and for others. This OEM redo of day before yesterday was so smooth
  the validation was not even seen but you and I know that it is in a
  Dell CMOS. Doing my own system, I only had to click on : This system
  is always connected to internet and it took over from there,
  connected to MS and was done in a wink. Did not hurt at all.

     
       Again in Kamouraska !
  Have a great day !
