Hello, I bought a few XP Home COA licenses without the cd and they were
extras or surplus pulls from Dell, and Toshiba, they were not registered
though. I activated them later but did not register them.
My question is can I change parts as the motherboard and still use this
license ?
I was told I cannot, such as if the system dies so does the licence. Well my
thought to that was you can always upgrade if you want so your computer can
never die ?
I was told to buy a license that comes with the cd so you can upgrade your
system case and continue to use your licence.
when activating these licenses after a reformat I could always do it online.
Now it makes me call ? Is it because I never registered just activate them or
does it have something to do with the type of licence or a change in their
system ? I know my friends do not have to call in to activate Windows but
they bought their license with the cd.
I would like to chang to a different brand MB but do not want to but a
another license ?
