question about Windows 2-cpu limit

[jasong]

If you look in the FaD forums in the 5/14 contest section, you'll see that I won a computer:
XP2000 + mobo + HS/Fan + 256Mb Ram
video cardMy question is that since it has a separate motherboard, is it still possible to run it under Windows XP as a second processor? I'm sure there are other questions to add to this, but

(1) I'm ignorant of these types of details, and

(2) The equipment hasn't come yet.

sorry, but no.:D

You will have to install XP again on this system - the XP cpu license limit is based on 2 CPU's on one motherboard with one OS installation sitting on the pair of them.

Aslong as you have got a HDD to add to the system on its way from Bok (unless it already has one, i have not seen the list) then you will be able to get it up and running nice and quickly...

I have a new option since the time I started the topic.

I have the option of running DC on my grandmother's computer, which resides in what used to be my brother's room. Since she lives yards away from our house(we share a gate between two backyards), my dad gave her the same modem leech access he gave me.

I'll have to talk to him about it the next time he's in a good mood.
