Reinstall of window XP
Hi,
If this is a retail version of WindowsXP, then you will have no problems with reactivation. You may need to phone it in depending upon circumstances. If you bought an OEM full version, activation may be blocked as it will be seen as a new system. An OEM license is usually tied to the original installation. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers aka "Nutcase" MS-MVP - Win9x Windows isn't rocket science!
