Microsoft will probably see it, and disable updates for that serial number.



You gotta have updates.
probably would work but the problem is not that, the problem is the activation code. Activation code you have to get it from Microsoft. And then they are going to find out that you are using one serial number for all 3 computers and they wont accept taht.
yes and no. you mosy likely will be bale to install it and the computers will work buy when you boot up after a while (after you get caught) you will get messages telling you that you copy of windows is illegal so on and so forth. you will not be allowed to update. why not use linux? work as good if not better and it's free just download on any existing computer that is on line, download the free legal file burn it to disk and the boot from cd after you re format your computers. everything you had will work and linux does not get viruses.



Good Luck
i had to do the same thing. you need to buy a seperate cd key for each comp. you put load the disc into.contact microsoft and they can talk you through the whole thing.i think ist about $90.00 bucks a key.
This depends on how many systems it has been authenticated on already but it can be loaded 3 times, just authenticate through the same internet connection and all should be fine
Nope, the genuine windows xp will only work with one pc. If you used that serial no once you've got to get the new one unless you've call ms to approved the serial no with lots of questions to answer.
