No. You need to purchase another license for the second
installation on a different PC.
In case you overlooked it:
On the back of the Windows XP box, please read the statementÂ:
"For installation and use on one computer"
(see License Agreement for license terms).
Go to Start >Run box type: WINVER , and hit enter. Then cÂlick on the
"End-User License Agreement" and read it. Your answer
lies in that agreement.
Direct quote from the EULA:
1. GRANT OF LICENSE.
Microsoft grants you the following rights provided that
you comply with all terms and conditions of this EULA:
1.1 Installation and use. You may install, use, access,
display and run one copy of the Software on a single
computer.....
You can also open XP's "Help and Support" and type: EULA
and hit enter. Click on "Questions and answers about the EUÂLA".
