[QUOTE="SammySlim, post: 593476, member: 48298"] I installed XP in a Bootcamp partition on my Santa Rosa Macbook, and activated it with MS. I later installed a trial version of Fusion - and it indicated (both onscreen and in the documentation) that Windows needed to be reactivated - but I can't do so - MS says my product key has exceeded the times it can be activated. I bought an OEM version of XP. Is this a Fusion-only issue, or am I stuck with having to buy another copy of Windows? it surprised me because I've seen others refer to using an OEM version. Searched but did not see anything on this. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
