Can anyone offer guidance?
I have two licensed copies of Windows XP Home, one of which is on a damaged
disk...a fact I became aware of when I recently swapped out a dead pc. Long
story short I currently have two machines loaded from the same XP install
disk. Assuming this will eventually cause problems, I have tried to update
the product key during telephone activation per Knowledgebase article 810892
but the activation routine will not accept the change. I have also tried to
use the windows KeyUpdateTool with equal lack of success. Any thoughts before
I punt and go to Linux?
