Windows XP Activation need some help

Hey fellas

I have a perfectly legitimate version of Windows XP SP2 that I got with my ERGO laptop. This is an OEM disc, and has already been installed on my laptop. Is there any possibility that I can run and activate this version on my newly built home PC or does the Microsoft EULA forbid it?

Cheers

I dont think it will allow you to run it on 2 machines when you try toacitvate it!

Pretty sure you'll have to buy anouther one. It might install but I don't think it'll activate. It might, but IDK.

You can do it...but i dont know if I can say how here. I am not that old on this site and dont want to get in trouble. synisterk

No...you can get the same key on more than one pc at the same time. synisterk

He asked for a legit solution, please do not keep hinting at the fact that it can be bypassed... we all know it can, but that is not the point.

Back on topic, OEM disks only work on the one system. You might be able to get a new key through a phone call to microsoft, otherwise you are stuck having to purchase another copy. When you purchase a copy of windows, you are not really paying for the disk... it is really the key. Good luck = )

technically it is legit.

i am not insinuating at hacks or cracks if thats what you are implying.

Tell us how then!

Cheers Guys. Yes there is a way of activating it, most of us know what it is ,I do but I'm not allowed to mention it here, Response to the guy who hinted at this, yes you do get moderated for even the slightest with of illegal activities. Most of us also know it's illegal, I'll sort it out myself but thank you for everyone's help
