XP Reinstallation

[Cris]

I have an OEM version activated with all documentation
and would like to re-install from a formatted hard drive
and all the same computer components, and would like to
know if I will encounter any reactivation problems.

As long as Windows XP is reinstalled on the same computer,
you shouldn't have any problems with Product Activation.
If, for some reason, Product Activation should fail when attempted
via the internet, simply choose the next option, "activate by telephone".
