Walmart has XP so it is good. They are all made by Microsoft and you know it's genuine then.

would my recovery disk from my windows 7 asus computor work?

Nope, different drivers will load which will most likely cause the system to not boot.
Also since it is a recovery disk for another system it is against Microsoft's EULA to load it on another system.

Can't guarantee your system will be able to handle win 7

You stated earlier your laptop was 6 - 8 years old.
That would make it a 32 bit unit.
You can use XP home or XP pro.
It does not matter.

It's still booting the HD and not the cdrom.
Did you purchase a Xp disk or did you borrow a copied disk?
