installing XP on 2nd computer

muffinhead · 2005-06-12 15:29:50

is it possible to install windows xp on a 2nd pc without coming across too many hitches with the activation process? i have xp on my main computer, with license key & cert. of authenticity, etc, but would like to install it on my 2nd computer that is currently running an unreliable windows ME.

No you are not allowed - Read the license

If its OEM windows you aren't even allowed to transfer it to another PC.
