I have two computers one with windows XP the other windows 98SE. Can I install winXP on my other computer with winXP disk from the first computer? Or do I have to buy another winXP for the second computer?

lol yeah, it was probley activated already............. 1 disc per 1 computer. Once a Copy is Activated, you will not be able to run it on another system. the only trick around it is if it's the SAME IDENTICAL SYSTEM< there is like alittle hack you can do and you can get the activation [-peep-] off.
