[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 563285, member: 8287"] Like CWA said, if it's not an OEM copy you can use it on another machine. You install it and then when you activate it you will probably have to call a number and feed it 10 groups of 6 digits. It will refuse to activate and hand you over to a Microsoft person. You give them the code, they will ask you, tell them you reinstalling on a new machine and it's not OEM, they will ask if this is the only machine your XP is installed on, say Yes. Then they will read you a code of 10 Groups of 6 Digit numbers, and you enter them and it will activate. Just did it for a friend the other night. [/QUOTE]
