Use this information as you will. Some may be relieved by it, others suspect and incited. The later is not my intent.
I just did a full system reinstall on my computer. I have been experiencing minor glitches with XP Pro for a while now, and I habitually reinstall my OS infrequently to get a "fresh start". I back up all important data, slick the HD and start installing.
Having just bought and installed PS CS on November 13, 2003, I was wondering if I would have difficulty activating it again so close to the original install. Plus, that same day I installed it on my laptop, using both installs per the EULA. No hardware changes, simply reinstalling the OS and programs on my HD
So, the XP Pro activation went without a hitch. The PS CS activation went without a hitch. Huh? A scant 11 days after the first install and no problems? I was pleased. My Office XP Pro and Publisher XP activations also went without a hitch. No phone calls, no grilling, simply pressing the mouse button and activating over the internet.
Maybe I’m one of the lucky ones, but I doubt it. For myself, I can happily tweak my system without worrying now.
