'No license in this machine' message on Windows XP

R

R&A

I got a new computer with Windows XP and have installed my old hard drive in it. All microsoft programs seem to work o.k. However, when I try to use Access, I get the message 'Microsoft Access can't start because there is no license for it on this machine." I have sought a solution and one is offered in this forum. However, it is only good for other versions of Windows (not XP). I need to access my databases, please help!
