[QUOTE="kevvyb, post: 129099, member: 18793"] Hi Thanks for that. Seems that there are no special un-installation procedures as with some software which does not allow installation on another machine unless the hash records the right number of installations to un-installations. I am very familiar with the activation process with XP which includes the mac address in the hash. The full retail license allows installation on another machine but I was just wondering what the mechanism was when it is not possible to un-install an operating system in the same way as other software. Looks like it's just the activation process with nothing to really definitely verify the un-installation from the previous machine. [/QUOTE]
