For friends and family I have bought a multi pack of WinXP. For each person,
I’d like to install WinXP on a new HD in my computer and load everything I
think is needed, move this HD to their computer, and have them finish the
process, registering and so forth. Will XP do this, or will it recognize that
the computer is different and not run?

For everyone that is shouting ‘just get the upgrade!’ I am working with
people who are afraid of upgrades, from bad experiences going to Win 98 from
older versions.
