    I was wondering if any of you have experience in installing a different OS than the one pre-installed on your system.

    My Vaio FE11M (the European counterpart of the FE550g) has a French Windows Media Center Edition 2005 on it. I want to install a Dutch Windows MCE 2005 OEM on it instead. (I know that shouldn't be sold seperately, but they do here apparently).

    How would I go about that? Is this the same as a fresh install or can I use the recovery dvds that I can burn?

    Thanks in advance!
