Software is not an issue of the operating system usually - the version
of XP should not affect the programs you can install.

OK, so as I understand it you have one copy of XP pro? This means you
can install it on one machine. If you want it on a workstation and a
laptop you need to by a second XP pro licence. If You're saying that the
issue is that you can't activate the new copy due to the number of times
it's been activated already - you'll need to ring MS activation and
explain it to them.

NEVER put your real email address on newsgroup postings - it's the best
way on Earth to get spam. You can now sit back and enjoy numerous offers
