I upgraded the hard drive on my computer, and went to
activate Windows XP Home with my original product key and
it wouldn't allow it.

Is there a way to de-activate, so to speak, my old XP
installation so that I can re-activate it on my new hard
drive?

Thanks!

Choose the option to activate by phone.
Call the displayed number to Microsoft, done in about 5 minutes.
