typically it's not a good idea to have 2 anti-v's loading up at the same time
thanks I'll keep that in mind.

well....where the disc came from, there might be a "coa" on the case. Where did this Vista come from? separate purchase or from Dell as an auto upgrade? The auto upgrades shouldn't really be around anymore I believe but just asking.
Well I got it as a refurbished item. The Vista cd came in the box with the laptop. I just figured that the key on the bottom of the laptop was the one that worked for this computer.
