Installing Windows XP on two different computers, using the
same Product Key (license), is a direct violation of the EULA
and Product Activation will fail with the second installation.
The Windows XP End-User License Agreement (EULA) states you
can install one copy of XP on one computer. So you'll need
to purchase a second copy (Product Key - license) for a second
installation.
Read your Windows XP End-User License Agreement:
Start > Run and type: WINVER , and hit enter.
Also, open XP's "Help and Support" and type: EULA
and click on "Questions and Answers about the
End-User License Agreement".

Yes. ANd that has always been the requirement for windows. It is
because it has been so widely ignored that Activation has been brought
in
