clone 15 set pc windows XP

[Desmond Yap]

hi,

anyone can help me on the above said matter?

if i clone 15 set XP Pro with same Product ID, will i break the microsoft
software usage rules?

why i do so?
Because easy for me to maintain the software configuration at one time.

If you have 15 licenses (or paid for copies) I doubt if there would be any
problem.

If you are trying to get "free" copies then yes there is a problem.

If i bought the 15 set from HP( singapore ) come with the 15 Set windows Xp
pro Licenses, isn't have any problem?

I don't really think what you are trying to do will work. First, once you
have installed your clone on a different machine to which it was created
on - it will almost certainly not run withoout you doing a repair install
followed by a request to activate the copy of windows.

Even if this did not happen, your network would not run becuase you wouls
have duplicated MAC addresses. This is just one of several majot problems
you would encounter.

MAC addresses are hard-coded into the ROM on the ethernet adaptor; they
are unique.
