The best thing to do is to contact Gateway and see if they'll send you
another copy. Too bad you didn't create the restore CDs as suggested before
deleting the partition. That way, you'll get all the drivers and other
things you need specific to your Tablet.
Using your uncle's copy won't work unless you have the correct CD key. Yes,
it's against the EULA, but the main reason is that if you use his key,
itcould stop him from activating his machine if it became necessary to
reinstall or restore. The key from one machine will not work on a different
brand, nor on a retail or MSDN copy.
