Reactivation is a joke I have 1 win XP copy, 1 licence on 2 computers. Apparently its illegal to do this so I could not activate online. I called em up knew my plan would work as soon as I heard the Indian. So I tell them its only installed on 1 computer. Bingo done.

Technically, its only supposed to be on one computer, but yeah, they never find out.

If you can't reactivate again, just call them and say you upgraded your computer.
