All you have to do is install Windows XP on your
new hard drive, then upgrade to Windows Vista.
You cannot "edit/disable the licensing information in the DOS screen".

I want to upgrade my hard drive, graphics card and ram but have heard that I
would have edit/disable the licensing information in the DOS screen before
doing so or otherwise the system will not recognize the new hardware and
prevent access to Vista. If this is true then that would mean I should see
an install screen once again to re-enter my license code? I upgraded from
Windows XP and if this is still true then I need the commands.............
