Ok all, this is where I don`t have a clue.
I use Windows 2000 Pro legal as in genuine serial number.
And I have a copy of Windows XP pro (not so legal)
Now my wife has a genuine Windows XP home edition and so far it has been used 3 times, this means she can not use it again as it is the type that means 3 times is the limit.
Now there is another version of Windows XP that you can use as many times as you like on your own machine more than 3(not letting any one else use it)
What type is that?
I simple don`t understand simple as that.
TIA,

I myself have found that it varies. I've used a serial a couple of times and had to call in. I've used a serial once, then done a major hardware upgrade to the system it was in, had to re-register, and was told I had to call in. I've used it afterward, and had internet registration work just fine...!
So I guess "YMMV".
