This also explains how but cuts straight to how to do it without all the preamble.

In essence you have to edit the registry, re-arm the activation and then activate. It worked fine for me - I installed W7 onto a new HDD with the old one with XP on out of the PC. It also let me go from XP-32 to W7-64.
