Can I use Vista on another computer after uninstalling?

[Mcrespousa]

I had Vista Home Premium full version bought from Best Buy on my home built
PC. I uninstalled it and went back to XP Pro. Can I use the Vista on another
machine and be able to activate it?

Thank you.

If it is a retail version (as opposed to an OEM version), yes.

Best Buy doesn't sell OEM installation discs. You should know that.

Thanks for the information. I don't know why you think I should know that,
however. I've never bought an operating system at BestBuy and I don't keep
track of their inventory.
