Unable to activate XP SP3 Home Edition

Ok, here we go.  I am studying for my A+ on my own.  I have two older laptops, one is a HP 6230 and the other a Dell Inspiron 6000.  On a whim, I wiped the HP clean.  It previously ran XP SP3 Professional.  I reinstalled that on my Dell. Good to go and

it runs fine.  With me so far???

 

 

The Dell ran XP SP3 Home.  I installed that on the HP and attempted to activate but was denied.  Think I may have answered my question and want to know if I need a multi user license for the home edition.  I understand Microsoft is transitioning the user

base to 7 however I prefer XP for programming my radios (am a electronics tech with a wireless background) because my expensive programs will not run on 7 and cannot afford to upgrade them.  I have no need to migrate to 7.  

 

 

I sincerely appreciate your assistance.
