XP, mobo switch question....

[freddursth8]

Ok... So I bought a Compaq computer. It came with windows XP and a product key. But XP is only available on a recovery disc. I HATE my motherboard and was going to change it to an intel 865g chipset board. Now... I won't be able to reinstall my recovery cds over the new mobo right? If I can't, should I purchase a retail or OEM version of windows xp? Thanks.
