Not sure if anyone has been in a similar situation, but I am getting a new work laptop, and the one I currently have has FOF2k4 on it. What I did, was copy all files to the private drive on the network that no one else can access but me. Included in these files, is my licensed copy of FOF2k4. Now when I receive my new laptop, I will pull everything back down from the private drive and put it on my new laptop. Will I need to relicense the game? Or if I take my current licensed game from the network, will it still work without relicensing it? Not a big deal unlicensing and relicensing, but since this is all happening this morning, I figured I would unlicense now before my old laptop is taken, so I can relicense if necessary.

When i tried something similiar when I switched laptops, I still had to go through the whole unlicense and relicense process....but then again, I am not Mr. Computer here and could have easily missed something when transfering things though.

i think you'll need to relicense, since the e-license wouldn't be in your new computer's program files/e-license control thingamajig
