I setup a LICENSED Windows XP Pro on a PC and swapped the HDD on home PC (how often do you find me doing this on own PC?). Of course, both the PCs are of the same MOBO specs, or so I thought.
The PC booted successfully, except it prompt to re-activate Windows in 3-days since it detected significant hardware changes on the PC.
After googling a bit, found tips in Youtube on how to get rid of the activation.
Just open registry> regedit
Go to;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ WPAEvents
Modify the binary data of OOBETimer to FF D5 71 D6 6A 8D 6F D5 33 93 FD
Change the permission of folder WPAEvents of SYSTEM to DENY.
Restart PC and done !!
