Well, I finally got my new motherboard yesterday. I also finally put in my second Maxtor drive so I setup
RAID-0. I proceeded to install WinXP. The problem was it wouldn't let me activate. I had to call Windows at 2 in the morning (they have people that answer the phones then, what the hell?).
I then was asked how many computers I had XP installed on (one), why I needed to reinstall windows (for some reason when I get a new motherboard and a new hard drive set up I tend to want to reinstall windows), and things of that nature.
Why is this stupid limit placed? Maybe I'm a bit excessive, but everyone once and awhile I like to clean stuff up by formatting my OS partition and reinstalling.
I guess it's time to ghost my OS partition and just go bak once I want a clean install.
