Did you install it from the CD or did you use the download method? If you downloaded it from online you can download it again to another computer.
If you used the CD the first time.......
Even though you can install it 5 times, it seems you can only use the CD 1 time unless you install it on another computer using the other operating system like Mac. And if you installed from the CD it seems you can not download it from online. You can't do both CD and download. See the info on this FAQ
