re: windows xp licence registration Saturday, October 31, 2009 at 2:01 pm Posted by MartinM (7551 messages posted) Registration of XP isn't by user's name, it is by Product Key, and MS only allow one PC to be registered per key (there are exceptions but I doubt they apply to the issue you are talking about). If someone has managed to get hold of your Product key, when they try and register MS will know that it is already registered to another PC. Is this a theoretical question, or do you have a specific concern ?
