Good Day,
Dell Inspiron B120
Service Tag: G4HBD81
Laptop is used for Media storage etc.
The hard drive died.
I am trying to build an Unattended install XP sp3 CD.
Perhaps I should try Win 7 but I do not know if it is compatible.
I would like to avoid the “activate” and “registrtion” process.
The Dell OS Recovery Tool cannot find the OS.
I cannot get the XP Product Key used for the original Installation.
Hard Drive died. “Read Fail” on Boot.
I also cannot get the Product ID.
Nor can I get the “OEMBIOS” and “WPA” or “winnt.sif” files.
Finally, do you recommend NTFS or FAT32?
Can you help?
Thank you,
Joe
