Windows XP Home

by andy1512 Mar 21, 2004 7:49PM PST

Hi all

I have just built an updated computer as my old one was getting a bit long in the tooth.
I installed Windows XP Home Edition and registered this with MS.
I also installed it on my Netbook but it will not let me register it as I have done so on my main PC.
Is there anyway arround this so that I can install it on any machine I choose without the restriction.

Buy a corporate license. But I'm afraid it would cost more than another license for 1 computer.

By the way, this is the wrong forum for Windows XP questions.
