I have Photoshop CS4 full version (not upgrade), but I need to reinstall my OS. I want to keep my old install running on one hard drive and install XP on another hard drive, and have CS4 on both. Can I do this? I've heard about deactivation, no idea about it though.

Once the new install's running do I need to deactivate CS4 on the old machine?

Good idea Moppie. After wading through a voicemail system it seems that I can install CS4 on the new drive, use it on both (not at the same time), then deactivate the old copy when i'm done. To deactivate you choose deactivate from the help menu.
