Not to be a dick, but probably Windows ME. It's time for you to upgrade to windows 2000 or XP, or if the computer is super old "upgrade" back to windows 98. The best joke I've heard in a long time:
A speaker at a podium "As alcohol consumption increases, programming ability decreases, the exception being a spike between .13 and .139 BAC, which lends super human programming ability. Now this doesn't mean you can just give a team of programmers a years supply of whiskey and send them on their way."
Audience member "Has anyone actually tried that?"
Speaker "Remember Windews ME?"

Can you use a recovery CD as a OS CD on a new hard drive with no OS?
It depends, but not usually. Manufacturers tend to customize their recovery CD's. Some can even tell if the hardware is actually the same hardware that the CD was intended to be used on. But if that's not the case, then yes the recovery CD can be used on a computer with a blank hard disk. It's intended to be used in cases of catastrophic damage to your system. The primary concern is licensing (assuming you're talking about a Windows OS). OEM versions of Windows are typically non-transferrable and are intended for the computer it was originally installed on. The Certificate of Authenticity stickers on the outside of cases are made in such a way as to be hard to remove without destroying them, and are again intended only for the computer that the software was originally installed on.
