But how can you sell it - I think that it is an OEM license which will only run in the machine that Dell bought it for, from Microsoft. I'll try running the image of the partition which I made when I bought it on another machine and see what gives if I get the time, but in the past I remember trying something similar and I could not get it to work. -- Regards, Mick
