257755 2004-08-02 09:18:00 you can't. If win 2k came with the computer, then it's OEM and you can't put it on another computer legally.

if you bought it seprately, you should still have the install CDs

257756 2004-08-02 09:49:00 before you remove it from the pc delete all the drivers. (i assume the other pc has no other hardrive in it)

however its still far better to reinstall windows when doing mobo or pc swaps.
