Help with XP
I recently purchased a windows XP home edition upgrade on
my old PC. It basically didn't work as the computer was too old and things crashed such as cd-rom drives. I have 2 weeks later bought a new pc with xp already installed. Can you tell me if I am able to deactivate the original upgrade of Xp in order that I can sell it on??? J Humphrey |

Help with XP
There is no de-activation. If you sell it you must include the product key.
The new owner may install it if he has a qualifying product, such as Win 98 or ME. He will have to do a phone activation, and explain the circumstances. -- Steve C.
