Hey,

My laptop came with a serial key on the case but no disk, well long story short I had to re-format. Its windows vista, where would I get the disk from to install and would my code still work despite it being used before (by myself)
Also if your wondering my warranty is over.

Thanks,
Sect

Getting a torrent of windows is not legal, unless microsoft.com does some weird windows beta torrent or something crazy (yeah right with all their servers lol).

Borrowing a friends disk and using your code should be legal, just make sure it's the same type of windows so your code will work.
