I am running windows XP (I have the disk) with officeXP 03 full version.
I bought the machine used from a friend and I know that they purchased the software but I was not given a disk so I am assuming it was an upgrade.
I did recently run into some problems with the validation from microsoft when I tried to run media player and was told to reinstall my XP because it may have become corrupt; I want to be clear that this is a legally purchased version and I have the CD.

The reason I am avoiding a reinstall of XP is because I have dreamweaver installed and the previous owner didn't have the serial numbers for it. I am researching how to keep this and still reinstall my XP but people automatically think I am trying to steal it and won't give me advice. haha don't blame them.

hope this covers your questions.
and thanks for the extra help I appreciate it.
