Question

can i use the windows vista disc twice? after installing it on one computer can i use the same one to install it on to another computer?

Answer 1

you bcan but your not ment to

Answer 2

No, you only have one product key, so only one licence.

Answer 3

No. You need to buy separate licenses for each computer you want to use it on.

Answer 4

Nope! One license/computer.

Answer 5

Unfortunately you can only use it once,.as you only get one Licence Number to register it with,..and that's it!

I have thought this myself in the past,..but soon realised that Microsoft wouldn't be making any profit if all users could copy it on to another PC! ;)

Answer 6

Technically, you are not allowed to use install it on more than one computer, but if you bought the retail copy (not the OEM copy) then you can "transfer" it between computers.  In other words, you CAN activate it more than once, and thus you can technically install it on more than one computer.

Answer 7

nope. you have to get seperate licenses.  each computer has their own license. i have seen in some situations where people have ingenuine licenses but i dont know how they got them.

Answer 8

You can but you not get any updates unless you purchase a product with-in 30 days. If you want to do this, when you reach the part where it asks you to enter the product key just leave all the box's blank > press ok, it will continue to install windows, but like i say no updates.You will not get the wireless LAN card.

Answer 9

why pay for Windows Vista when you can have a better, faster, and more secure operating system for FREE with all the software you will ever need or want

  

Answer 10

No, It will be illegal, One license, One Computer, You can install it, Activate once but can't activate it twice.

Answer 11

Legally, you can only install it on one computer. But why would you want to install it on any computer? What did your computer do to you that it deserves such a fate?

Answer 12

well no you can't use 1 vista for 2 computers, you will have to have 2 separate licences for computers if you want to use it for 2 computers.
