I have bought a new computer and I want to install WindowsXP ( I have

I am going to transfer my old (activated) computer to my grandsons as
such, after uninstalling all software which I have acquired during
quite a few years.
I have a backup (Norton Ghost) copy of my old computer's logical
partitions which I would like to restore to my new computer, but this
would be violating the EULA license (Product Activation works by
validating that the software's product key, required as part of
product installation, has not been used on more PCs than is allowed
by the software's end user license agreement (EULA))
Is it possible to do the restore procedure and then install the new
copy of the WindowsXP which I have acquired? I would not like to
start from scratch and do the reinstalling of all my other software.
Any help and advice will be very appreciated.

I don't know much about Norton Ghost is it possible to backup just the
program files directory plus the accompanying registry files? Maybe Ghost
has the ability to do a partial backup without the OS.
