You can re-activate your copy as much as you want, as long as it is
installed to the same computer.
Worse-case scenario, you'll have to call into the activation center rather
than do it online.. Explain the situation and you should be fine.

Make sure you have the latest AMD CPU driver installed. Not having it
installed can lead to issues similar to what you are seeing (especially
with
Media Center, games or other timing dependent programs).
The latest version (v1.31) is available here

Hi,
This is my first time using MCE 2005. I got my copy from newegg with te
rollup. It has been pretty unstable and I don't know why.
first off, specs:
asus a8n-sli premium
amd x2 4400+ [copper hsf with pipes]
corsair 1gb (2x512)
soundblaster audigy 2
leadtek winfast 6600
250 gb WD caviar hdd
pioneer dvd
sony cd
----------
I have all the latest drivers for all components and such.
the problem is crashing when running programs, mainly:
warcraft 3
dreamfall the longest journey
aim
azureus
---------
all programs are up to date and i've noticed that the same errors keep
appearing in event viewer just prior to the crash:
for war3 its:
source COM+, category unknown, event id 4689;
The run-time environment has detected an inconsistency in its internal
state. This indicates a potential instability in the process that could
be
caused by the custom components running in the COM+ application, the
components they make use of, or other factors. Error in
d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\comsvcs\package\cpackage.cpp(1184), hr =
8007041f:
InitEventCollector failed

diskeeper, event id 2;
The Diskeeper Control Center has been started. Diskeeper service
started

wmdm pmsp service, event ID 105
The service was started.
