Install Windows several times.
Hello
I want to know how many times I can reinstall Windows on new PCs. This means: for example: I install Windows on PC1. PC1 dies. I have install Windows on PC2. PC2 dies. I have install Windows on PC3. etc.
And if PC1 does not die. Can I install Win on PC2 if I delete Win on PC1? And then as above etc...
The license itself is for a computer and therefore can only be active on one computer at a time. Under strict conditions, it must be removed from the original computer before installing on another. There is no specific limit how many times this can be done however if the same key is again authenticated too many times within a short period of time it can be reported and you will need to call the authentication Center.
The main disadvantage is with OEM licenses. Many buy this type of license of online retailers as it appears to be a significantly smaller version, but this version can never be installed on a computer. You can reinstall on the same computer, but it cannot be transferred to any other computer, even if that 1 has failed.

Windows XP SP3 with IE8 installed/uninstalled several times
original title: Windows XP SP3 with IE8 installed.
During the last week, I had 3 systems of Windows XP with SP3 & IE8 installed for service & and/or repairs. Update of Microsoft in the last week has been remove IE8 only to install IE8 again. Anyone can shed some light on why?
(1) all XP operating systems are 32-bit.
(2) IE8 was downloaded Microsoft as an installation for XP 32 bit offline.
(3) IE8 has been properly installed on all occasions.
(4) Microsoft update removes installed IE8 then causes other updates to fail, restart the PC and then to reinstall IE8.
(5) frustrating - so I do not install IE8 at this stage - allow update of Microsoft to provide the service.
(6) the location is of the Australia
(7) post updated will record tomorrow - God wanting!
