As the above procedure may still be useful in some cases, here is the recipe for teaching a cloned UWP/SWP Windows XP that it isn't the original, but has acquired an identity of its own.

This is not valid in the generic Windows case, but only in RuG UWP/SWP installed machines. |

I didn't try this one out, please send in corrections! |
There is a script to give the clone an ID of its own, which will automatically run if the machine hasn't been logged in on before.
If someone has logged in before, it will not run, but it can be reactivated by running C:\Program Files\UWP\brand.vbs.
One may conclude that the script has run if the clone reboots automatically after one logs in on it.
