Can I use my Windows XP cd key from my old computer on my new computer?

Hi and welcome to my blog,
I opened this blog to help anyone who is preparing for his SAT.
I remember myself when I started - I was so lost and in such a panic.
Luckily I got this great SAT guide that helped me a lot . So study hard and good luck!
I uninstalled Windows XP on my old computer. Can I install it on my new computer? Is there any way to test the key beforehand to see if it is a valid code? I tried to use the key from my laptop, but it would not allow it. I threw my old computer away. Will the key still be linked to my old computer? How does it know if the key is installed on another computer?

How should I prepare for the SAT Biology Subject Test?
I took Honors Bio in 10th grade but I didn’t learn a thing. My teacher was horrible and did not even give notes. We learned the material by doing endless amounts of worksheets.
I’m currently thinking about taking the SAT Bio Ecology Exam because I’m in AP Environmental Science. However, I know very little about Bio besides ecology, and I need a way to learn the material, review, and prepare for the exam.
I’m probably going to buy several review books (Barron’s, Kaplan, Princeton Review). I’m also thinking about buying a used textbook to review.
What review book and what textbook do you guys recommend? (Textbook needs to cover all the material and be easy to understand and get through).
Any other recommendations for SAT Bio preparation?
Thanks a lot!
How does the SAT II Biology Barron’s Prep book compare with the actual test?
Easier or harder?
What topics are rarely on the test, if those exist??
Help: SAT Practice Question…possible error in the Official SAT Study Guide book by TheCollegeBoard? ?
The question in the book is in its exact words:
The Acme Plumbing Company will send a team of 3 plumbers to work on a certain job. The company has 4 experienced plumbers and 4 trainees. If a team consists of 1 experienced plumber and 2 trainees, how many different such teams are possible?
Just tell me what you get…I got 48 but the book says the answer is wrong.
Undo XP Repair?
Hi. How do I uninstall an XP repair process that cannot be completed because I am misplaced the correct activation key to complete the process?
My laptop had been rather slow for a couple of weeks so I proceeded to defrag my hard drive when it suddenly took me to an error message indicating that the file "nostrolkrnl.exe" file was either corrupt or missing. I then replaced the file using the recovery console on an XP installation disk. This however took me to a "blue screen of death" (BSOD) message reading: "STOP: COOOO21a {fatal system error 0×00000000 0×00000000}. The session manager initiation system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0xc000026c".
At this point, I proceeded to fix my Windows by using the repair function in my XP Professional installation disk. However I was unable to complete the process as I lost the key (I didn’t think it would ask me for the key if only using the repair function). Please note that the installation disk I used to repair my window is not the original one for my laptop. I bought the laptop "used" with no accompanying disks. The laptop now is in a state where it only prompts me for the activation key (after the Windows splash screen) and does not offer me the option to uninstall this repair.
Please let me know if it is possible to uninstall this and/or (assuming it’s possible) how to repair the BSOD. The BSOD message doesn’t show now, but I figure it will if as soon as I am able to uninstall the repair.
Also note that my hard drive appears to be fine as it passed several tests using Techies Toolkit software.
Preparation of Blackberries?
Is there something you are supposed to do to blackberries prior to eating them or cooking with them? Perhaps covering them with sugar and letting them sit, like you do with strawberries? I am talking about the fresh ones you get in those little plastic containers in the produce section. I bought a package of them and made blackberry pancakes with them last night, but the pancakes didn’t turn out very good. They just weren’t sweet. Are they supposed to taste like that? I cut them up and put them in the batter and cooked the pancakes like that. Did I do something wrong? I mean, they were okay, but not delicious like I thought they would be. Please tell me about preparation and cooking with blackberries if you know. I would be most grateful for some answers.
