Hi Donk,

It is the Pavillion a1000y

I can't do it with the disc because I do not have the license key.  Please
tell me the few clicks to try.  I hope it works.  This woman really needs it
for her kids and it's been just sitting here.  I would love to see it go to
good use, but I can't take any chances giving it away not knowing everything
is cleared off of it.
