I just bought a new computer (bare bones) and will be just
moving the hard drive with XP Pro from my old AMD 750 to
the new AMD 2.1, with new MB, etc. My understanding is
that when I logon to the internet and run Windows Update,
XP recognizes that it's not the same computer and will
inactivate my license. How do I upgrade my computer and
still keep a valid license activated?
