Well I do have the Windows XP SP2 OEM disk. I used it before, but I couldnt get it to install on a specific drive that I wanted to. Like Hard core Rikki said.
does this just applies to WinME or all OEM versions?
Theoretically all OEM versions. Everything is already preinstalled, preconfigured and partitions are set FOR YOU beforehand. Using those OEM backups (for laptops) doesnt leave you much choice. OEM for PC usually installs normally, but with some stuff modified/added. Dell adds links to Dell sites ie, or keeps an OEM XP backup in a hidden partition, to avoid people sharing discs.
