Activating Windows XP

[jacobo]

I was running Windows XP on my Mac before it was stolen. My insurance
replaced the computer but when I re-installed windows from the original cd,
it will not let me used the COA because it was used with the computer that
was stolen. Is there a way to re-activate windows on my new computer using
the COA that came with the original CD? Thank you.
