Hi again. I have the evidence in front of me that a product code can be used again, I am using the XP OS from my old PC right now on my current PC. I believe it depends on the timescale from the original registration to the new one. All I can say is give it a go, if it rejects your registration then so be it.
Martin John Gregory recently said:-
No, once the product code is input and registered it cannot be used on another PC, no matter how close the new PC is to the old spec and configuration. Agreed, if Ali had bought the upgrade you have, then obviously he would still have 2 more installs, but definitely only 2 as it would be logged with MS that one license had already been used.

He didn't state where the original came from. Some licences can be installed upon 3 computers as with this family licence from Amazon. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-Windows-Premium-Upgrade-Licence/dp/B002MT2 1N6/ref=sr_1_3?s=software&ie=UTF8&qid=1356556082&sr=1-3 Product Features .Microsoft Windows 7 Family Pack contains a single license for Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium that can be installed on up to 3 PCs. .Windows 7 Home Premium (includes 32-bit & 64-bit versions) makes it easy to create a home network and share all of your favorite photos, videos, and music--you can even watch, pause, rewind, and record TV .Make the things you do every day easier with improved desktop navigation .Start programs faster and more easily, and quickly find the documents you use most often .Make your web experience faster, easier and safer than ever with Internet Explorer 8 .Easily create a home network and connect your PCs to a printer with HomeGroup .UK English Furthermore, I recall that a licence can be transferred when hardware fails but I can't remember how that system works.
