Activate XP

[Molly]

I am trying to activate XP and ever time I try to click on
the icon, it disappears. I do not have a Activate Windows
icon anywhere. I have 4 days left. How do I do this?
I have the same XP system on my other computer. Do I need
a seperate licence?

Yes Molly, as has always been the case, if you want Windows on 2 PCs you
buy 2 copies (licenses) for Windows.
So you do need to purchase another license for your second machine.
