Can I install Adobe Acrobat 8 on the new computer laptop if it is not possible to deactivate on old PC?

I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional that I installed on my PC in 2007. My PC has renounced the shadow and the shop where took to a now destroyed the hard drive for me, so I can't disable the software before installing again on my new laptop which has Windows 8. The shop seem to have copied the file shortcut to the new laptop, but nothing else. Can I reinstall without disabling the previous software?

You may be able to make it work. If you have a 64 bit system, as many are today, then you may have more trouble.

If you need to adjust the activation, it is something that must be done with Adobe directly. Two facilities are generally licensed for every copy of Acrobat you have, so you can have a left.

Suppose you manage the installation. The first step is to install the updates (especially for a 64-bit system). You may be able to make updates in the Help menu (assuming that Acrobat opens). If you need to install manually, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and install updates in the order. To download from the most recent backwards, because each update tells you the previous update required for installation. In general, just restart after the update.

To test your system, first check the features of Acrobat and Distiller programs by selecting from the menu of programs (or the Metro interface). If you have a PS file available, check the processing of this file by Distiller to check on the creation of PDF files. Then, try to print from an application to the Adobe PDF printer. If it works, fine. If this is not the case, try a print to a file and open the file in Distiller to create a PDF file. If the printing process is running, then try to WORD or other product of MS that could have the PDF Maker inside. See if you can create a PDF from this application. The only way to know for sure to try it. Adobe does not certify AA8 for Win7 or Win8 as it was not tested. For Win7, several people have reported success.
