You see what can happen is if you went to regisiter it microsoft would come back and not only tell you the product key was illegal, they could even shut your friends computer down as well. why did not someone pick this up when this was first posted, i for one don,t help people with cloned xp on their computer, you see i do other work for microsoft here in uk, stopping piracy. so well done to pip22

Well this is kinda comlicated and I'm pretty sure that it is legal, my friend has gotten a new computer with a new Windows XP so I asked him if he could just install his old Windows XP on my Windows ME (this is where the problem occured) and since his old computer is beyond repair (reason why he got a new computer) and will never be used again i firgured that it will be legal because only one copy of the Windows XP will be in use.
