  1. Windows 10 Pro DSP vs OEM


    I would like to know which Windows 10 Pro license DSP, OEM, FPP is OK by Microsoft for the following two new-computer scenarios:


    a. Assembled from parts new pc

    b. New branded pc Dell, HP etc. bought with no OS FreeDOS/FreeOS


    I've searched around but haven't managed to find Microsoft's statement on this or may be my searching was too sloppy. I would very much appreciate your pointing me in the right direction, but could you please quote me chapter and verse if possible.


    Thank you very much,


    Nikolas

  2. Dsp?

    What is a DSP copy of windows XP? I was looking online for cheap prices for Windows XP Professional (I like to be legit, but cheap), and found a "DSP - means the CD included with this product is a Hologram CD and not a CD labeled by a specific computer manufacturer (i.e. Dell, HP, etc.)" note on the purchase page. This is a fully working OEM copy of Windows XP Pro right? Is there something wrong with it, or is it just like a distributable copy?

    On that note, anyone know of a site to get XP Pro for cheap?

    Dsp?

    it is a dsp - distributable service pack which means it was meant to be a non retail volume purchase pack.

    in short its an oem hologram cd. the confusion is were dealers sell dell labeled cds as dsp meaning dell service pack cds. see where the slide of hand comes in lol. and stay away from academic cds i think the code expires after a year or two

    all in all as long as its a hologram your ok. if its a dell cd you better get a good discount as many of those are stolen even though they work. its safest to find the retail part number for it then look for an oem version with that part number and you'll be safe.

    even with all its faults vista isnt bad and only $20 more than xp sells for anyway so the best move is to just get vista home 32bit if your buying an operating system anyway.
