I'm thinking about buying a new computer, but I'm afraid the REGISTRATION CODES won't work on the new computer. Some of my games have been with me through a couple of motherboard upgrades, so I'm concerned that they may be approaching the limits of the product key. Are there any gamers out there who have rebuilt their computers a lot or bought a lot of new computers and had trouble with games no longer accepting the registration code on the new computer? If so, have you been able to contact the company and get a new code? I'm especially concerned about my Microsoft games (Halo, Rise of Nations, etc.,) and EA games because I know those companies tend to be heavy on anti-piracy and cheap on customer service. EA won't even talk to me about Medal of Honor: Allied Assault because they've discontinued it. Have any of you had any problems with this?

Also, has anyone had any recent luck in getting Microsoft to transfer a Windows XP product key to a new computer? If I have to replace a bunch of my games AND pay $100 for a new Windows key, I'm going to be TICKED!!!
