It shouldn't matter Michael.
As long as VRPC is on the same machine, thus the same Network MAC address
it'll work without you having to get a new unlock code.

I have a Backup VRPC installed on a memory stick, and as long as I put it
in the correct (Original unlock install) machine it works.

Dave

OTOH. If you have a RPCEmu on a memory stick it'll work anywhere on any PC
(Sans networking of course).

So each of the two possibilities has an upside and a down side.
