coltm4carbine Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 There is no limit as to how many times you use the disk. But you can only use the key once (usually). If you've reformatted then it doesn't count as a 2nd computer - so you can still use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parabola Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 From a legal point of view: If it is a consumer version: you are allowed to have it installed on as many computers as you want, but only one at a time. If it is an OEM version: you are only allowed to have it installed on one specific computer - meaning if you change your motherboard it counts as a different computer and you must not install it again.

dirtydog250 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 The only way you can use a Microsoft OS or Microsoft Office program on more then one computer at a time with the same product key (serial number) is if all the hardware in both computer are the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
