My motherboard/CPU resently died and am now shopping for a new one. The problem i have is that will i have to buy a new windows XP or can i use my old one?

The windows i currently use came with my PC and I have CD with a stamp on it which says "For distribution with new Synergio PC only" .
 
You'll have to replace the defective motherboard with an identical one
from your PC manufacturer, otherwise your OEM version of Windows XP
will not work or activate.
