I see your point gtaymadder, its unfair that a reinstall will deduct from the allocation, as a reinstall is not an additional pc!!!

it does seem very unfair that a reinstall deducts from the total allocated. The fact that the computer will generate the same id key from the hardware inside, ms will know that it is the same box....that really is not fair!!!

I have a question about Volume licence keys. My company has an allocation of 50 Volume Licence keys, so once an install has been activated that count is deducted from our allocation, so we now have 49 left. If for some reason the pc needs to be reinstalled, does this take another licence or will Microsoft know that it is the same pc? Any advice will be grateful y received Cheers Sentinal

Hi, i am trying to create an install using a VLK version of windows xp pro which has SP2 included, creation of the image etc using winlite works ok. my problem is when i boot the image, windows complains that it cannot find a previous verion of windows. I find this strange as its not an upgrade version of windows, installing windows from the VLK media works fine. Has anyone got any ideas why or what i could be doing wrong. Cheers for your time.
