Will Dell Windows OS CD work on any computer?

[RJ831]

Hello all, I have a Windows XP Pro CD that is in perfect condition. The only thing is that it came with my Dell computer. It says "Only use this CD to reinstall the operating system on a Dell computer. This CD is not for reinstallation of programs or drivers." My question is, even though it says it's only for Dell computers, will it work for reinstalling an OS on a HP or Gateway computer? Thanks all.

as long as it's an installation disc for windows then it should be ok, it'd just have the dell logo everywhere in windows
