Daz, chances are you can do what I did which is install a clean copy on the lappy and then call M$ (I nearly barfed doing this) and get them to activate it... They only ask if the key has been used on anything else (my reaction was "Er... It's XP Home, you really think I'd install this on anything I wanted to use?") and they'll override the dell stuff...

But the point is I cant iinstall it without Dell media. Or generate my own key, which is just pointless in this case.
