Probably another stupid question I should know the answer for.
The situation is that I have a lappy here with a broken windows, I have their original windows sticker with the activation code so nothing dodgy. Problem is that their version is 'home premium' and I only have a 'pro' dvd to boot off and attempt a repair. Should this work or do I have to source a home premium dvd? cheers -------------------- Just the other day I saw an article about an advertisement for a recent job opening at a McDonald's in Massachusetts that required applicants to have "one to two years experience and a bachelor's degree".

Should do. Files-wise, everything is there. Might as well try it.
