Activate Windows XP several times
When you reinstall Windows XP, you'll have an activation, which can be annoying especially since you can not activate as many times as you want. But there is a trick to keep the activation files and then copy them on your newly installed Windows XP:
When Windows XP is properly installed and activated from Microsoft, copy the following files on a USB drive, CD-R or whatever you want:
- C: \ windows \ system32 \ wpa.dbl
- C: \ windows \ system32 \ wpa.bak
- C: \ windows \ system32 \ wpabaln.exe
When you reinstall Windows XP, copy just the files saved on USB drive, CD-R or c: \ windows \ system32, and your Windows is activated again.

I will try it sometime, and will tell you if worked or not.
