I am broke 5 times over, took me couple of days to find a system that would boot my XP2 disk after the main board blew up a condensator.
it needed product registration and surprise, it still works for Microsoft XP
I skipped window 7,8 and 9 and bought a refurbished windows 10 from a trader in the family.
My luck to have long time microsoft experience so it is not to hard to find your way around but oh my what brains whip up all bells and whistles that need a 200 page manual to understand what it is supposed to do
