    I have a sony vaio that I am trying to re-install windows xp media center on, now it didn't come with the actual Windows installer CD, however I have the sticker with the product key and everything else on the back of the vaio, can I use a different windows xp media center disk, and still use my product key to install windows?

    Thanks Matt

    Yes- product keys are not unique to the CD's; they are unique to the computer, and you can use any media center CD as long as you use the key from the sticker on your PC
