Replacing Windows XP with Vista

My daughter has a Dell laptop with Windows XP. My son has similar laptop with Windows Vista. Her computer is so slow, it was recommended to reinstall Windows.
However I can't find her XP installation disc although I do have my son's Vista DVD.
Would it be illegal in any way to use his Vista reinstallation disc (which is currently working well on his computer) to replace my daughter's Windows XP?
I presume I'd have to enter a code which might show up as already in use??
Could this affect his computer?

Sorry if these are silly questions - I just don't know how these things work!!
