I have Windows XP installed on my PC, which came together.
I've recently bought an old(ish) laptop with nothing on it, but said it was suitable for windows XP. I installed my XP from the PC on the laptop ok & ignored for the time being the request to register this windows XP with Microsoft. Now it won't work...! I've called a number to Query/register it but they've told me that the windows XP i have on my PC can only be used on that PC.

Is there a way round this?
