Activation prior to taking an image - will this cause problems?

  Hi All,

  I've just purchased 40 identical HP Mini netbooks with Windows 7 starter edition. I configured one of the machines as needed and activated Windows prior to taking an image. This image has now been rolled out to the other 39 netbooks successfully. However I have just realised that activating prior to taking an image may not have been the best move. The machines all say Windows is activated but I'm concerned that this may change with future Windows updates and cause problems after I have distributed the netbooks to users.

  Does anyone know if I need to reactivate each netbook manually or am I ok with the existing activation on all 40 netbooks?

  I did try going to the System control panel to reactivate but the Change Product Key option is not shown.

  Many thanks,

  Olly

  Here is my MGAdiag output:
