Activation

[Tony]

recently my hard drive went bad, so when i got it replaced
i also removed a 5.25 floppy drive that i no longer
needed, then did a clean install and now when i try to
activate windows it give me an error that says something
like i have activated it too many times. i was under the
impression the i could install windows as many time as i
wanted on my computer, did the hardware change cause
this? thanks in advance
