View Single Post - Does a reinstall from a Recovery CD activate windows?

Hi everyone,

I have a laptop and I got a recovery cd with it. I was just wondering, when you
use it, the cd completely reimages your hard drive back to the default settings
that my computer came with when xp was first installed and it was brand new.

I was just wondering, does using this CD and doing the recovery back to default
actually activate windows each and every time that its done?
