I have a legal xp pro system for 2 computers and in the last 2 month have
been having hardware problems and have had to reinstall several and move a
previously installed system to another computer. Now Microsoft is treating
these two installed systems like they are bootleg ones and cutting off
several important licenses and aren't letting me download updates . How can
I get them to see these two systems are legal.

NO, you have a legal xp pro system for ONE computer with 2 CPUS. BIG
DIFFERENCE. You are NOT LEGAL. Go buy a legal copy for the second computer.

RE: Registration

How do you figure you have a copy of XP valid for two computers??
Does the license specifically state licensed for 2 pc's?

Re: Registration

No the user is confusing CPUs (processors) with computers. XO PRO is
licensed for use on a dual CPU computer.
