My license agreement for Photoshop 7 (and adobe licenses in general ) allow a legal user to install a second copy on a secondary computer (laptop) for his exclusive use, provided the primary and secondary computers are not running the software at the same time. I can find nothing legal that precludes me from removing the software from an old computer and installing it on a newer machine. If it works (and you don't have multiple copies on multiple machines) go ahead.
