In my case. I am installing with a generic CD I acquired legitimately
for other purposes. Since replacing Mary's computer is not one of those
purposes, I figured that using her key from the O.S. (bought for her old
machine but never installed) would legitimize it.
Interestingly, something very similar happened the last time I tried to
REPAIR XP on a laptop that had corrupted a few files. That time, the
alleged repair process trashed everything, then in re-install with the
original CD (seemed to be the original anyway) CD, the product key on
the COA sticker under the laptop was rejected. That time the Microsoft
guy just created and read to me a new product key over the phone.
