Moving xp license from old pc to new problems
I have an old pc that I bought with xp preinstalled. The pc is old and
dying so I bought a new pc without xp as I thought I could use the license on the new pc. I did a clean install on the new pc and when it came to entering the key it was rejected. The key was on the panel on the side of the old pc and I double checked it on the old pc by using jellybean finder software. Eventually I used a key code from my work pc just to get the pc working (so that I could transfer data) but of course I can't update and I have the 30 day warning. Why didn't my old pc key work? Now that I've used another key to start the xp working is there a way of correcting this? Would welcome any help.. Peter |
