Repair

[Jerry]

I have a computer I recently built and installed Windows XP from a OEM disk I
purchased. This replaced one I took out of service but intend to return to
service shortly.

Recently my new computer crashed and I had to us the XP Install disk to do a
repair. I inadvertently used the disk from the computer taken out of service.
Subsequently I activated the new computer using the product number from the
computer which is not currently in service.

Do I need to re-repair my new computer and activate the original product
number?

Is it working?

Did it activate?
