Migrate Home 2012 install from Win XP to Win 7 on the same computer/hardware

Thread needs solution

I have a registered version of Home 2012 which works just fine for me. I am planning an upgrade of Win XP to Win 7 this weekend on the same hardware. What do I need to do in order to use the same registration on the same computer with the same hardware but just a change in the operating system?

Thanks

Install ATI, enter the serial #. You may get the "Too many activations" message. If so, deactivate that installation, after which you'll be able to re-enter the serial number to re-activate it.

Many thanks. Just did as you said and no problem. I am not sure if they link the registration to the motherboard, but there was no change in hardware....no problem with just entering the same serial number.
