[David V.T]

Hi, all

Now i have a some big problem, a'm have already activaded windows xp 10
times.
Now microsoft asks my on how many computers do jou installed your windows xp
please ?
I say one,
But I like to er build my computer every 3 mouths some times a new CPU or
some times a new Moderboard or new Memory ......... A'm a upgrader a lot.
So I need to install windows XP pro alot of times,
And activaded also a LOT of times.....on the same PC !!!

Now i think microsoft, is no right i think so i may not upgrade my PC in
any way !!!!

And do i have to buy every time i rebuild my PC an new
Windows XP pro ?


Is this a Problem ?

It may depend on what version of XP you have. I know you say XP Pro but is
it full retail or is it OEM. If it's the full retail then you just need to
explain what you do to require re-activation, if it's an OEM version then I
don't think you are permitted to continually switch hardware.

Actual you are. Just as long as you don't change the motherboard or
add or replace a network card.

Why do you continuously upgrade?

I would recommend getting a Linux system, since you like to upgrade a
lot . (except read had)

I'm sure you appreciate that the vast majority of Windows users do not make
substantial changes to their hardware every 3 months. Therefore, you should
not be surprised if, at some point, Microsoft refuses any further
activations or insists that you purchase a different type of license.
