Help, really fustrated. I had a server that died and was replaced. Thinking
I was saving $ I fixed the srever and had Windows XP loaded on the server for
home use. Long story short --The unit is dead. Now I just bought the XP pro
software and it is OEM. I want to reload this software on another PC. I can
not do it because of the activation code deal. So I bought this software and
it is not being used on any other PC , it seems like I should be able to use
it.. Any thoughts on how to get a new activation key????

Thanks

That is not a technical problem - but one of the EULA you agreed to by
purchasing the OEM version of the software and installing it on a computer.
There is no technical issue there - in fact - it would probably technically
work with a phone call.
