    Hi there,

    I want to reinstall Win XP onto a PC and active it.

    The problem is I'm not sure what registration code that was use to activate it before. I have a bunch of XP codes it might be one of them.

    Question is: Can I use any code I have to active it? Even if it might be a code that was used for a different Win XP PC?

    Kind Regards

    Is the machine still working that currently has XP on?
    If so, you could use Magical Jelly Bean to show the current product key.

    So I can reinstall with the current reg code I find using Magical Jelly Bean, even though the code as been activated previously on its first installation?
