Adobe's new methodology to avoid copy protection limits a serial number to a select number of installs (2 or 3, I believe).
They would prefer that you officially un-install or transfer your serial number before loading onto another machine.
I had a similar issue a couple years ago when my laptop went belly-up. Because I didn't 'transfer' the license before reinstalling on a new computer, I came across the same error.
A call to Adobe customer service/tech support, and I was able to resolve the issue. Sounds like you should be able to do the same thing.
