If I get a new motherboard, can I install my existing OEM XP or do I have to buy it again?
I saw the vista threads but not sure if this applies to XP
Cheers

Exactly the same for XP as for Vista. To stay legal, you will have to buy a new copy of XP, unless it is because your motherboard went kaput and this is a replacement
 
it is a replacement for a dead board so do you just install and activate / register it as usual with no issues?

I think its failed, just planning ahead. I have power problems so I'm trying a new PSU first if that's not it then the boards dead.
