I have a friend with a vista laptop and no recovery partition. I want to share the wonders of a fresh OS install (Nuke and Pave), but I would certainly prefer to not brick her laptop. The way that I would plan on doing it would be this:
-Borrow someone's vista disk
-Format her HD
-Install vista from disk
-Key in the license from the bottom of her laptop
I am worried about a random copy of the vista disk not accepting her license key. How worried should I be?
