The XP OS won't boot except on a computer it sees as the one
it was activated on, putting the hard drive in another
computer and it sees all new hardware.

Because each PC most likely has a different type motherboard and/or disk I/O
controller which requires specialized drivers - drivers that are not
installed - so it can't read the drive without the proper drivers. This is
why in all NT OS's (XP, 2k3, 2k, NT), a repair install of Windows is
required when the motherboard and/or Disk Controller is not replaced with an
exact duplicate.
