    When Windows is installed on a PC, it gets installed with the things needed to run on that PC. Taking that install and trying to put it on a PC with different hardware is likely to fail.
    Not a TI problem.

    OK, what you need to do is - hunt down your XP CD, boot from it, when the first option menu appears select install then a short while later you should see a message that the installer has found another copy of XP. It will ask you if you want to install or Repair, choose REPAIR, this will then delete all the system files that know about your hardware - re-install them (you will need to have access to your install key) - reboot and all will be fine, all your former programs will be there and XP will boot.

    If you mean what about MS licence - then, legally once you have moved XP copy A to XP copy B the copy of XP that is on A should be removed.

    If the other computer is a brand name one, and it came with a copy of XP and has the COA somewhere lurking (or had, if it has fallen off), then you are OK, though technically you should use the COA number that came with that computer. The actual CD itself won't care - so long as the number used is correct for the type of install.

    Do you mean the Windows part or the rescue CD?


    As I understand the licence, the Windows part must have a licence per computer that it is installed upon.

    For the rescue CD I think the one licence covers it, but I'm not sure on that point.

    Hi, I think there should be no difference in license for windows part or rescue CD. The point is how u use it. U use for one PC or more than one. I don,t know as well.
    Anyone knows better?

    You need a separate ATI license for each separate computer you *boot* with the rescue disk. Note this is not just an "installation" issue, but a "running" issue. I.E it is about computers upon which the software is run, not just where the software is installed.

    Also, if you Windows came OEM on your PC, the license for it is probably restricted to that one machine and not transferable to new PC. YOu need to read the EULA (End User License Agreement) to know for sure. A EULA comes with each licensed piece of software -- some are much longer than others.
