you can install from the same disk as many times as you want...the disk itself doesn't have any limits.
the license for the disk is only good for one machine.
if youre install becomes corrupt and you need to reinstall, you can. The only problem you may run into is that when you get to the activation screen, if you've already activated over the internet, it may say that youre activation failed. then, you just have to call the number they provide on that screen and talk to a microsoft rep. and explain what happened and they'll give you an unlock code.

On the same system, if it is reformatted, as many times as you want. I think in the beginning there were some restrictions. If you change the hardware or the system, XP would not install after being used 3 times.

Get a key generator by downloading it and install as many times as you like on as many machines as you like. Or you can go to Brian Carr's website and get one of several academic volume keys he has there.

On the same hardware unlimited. It's when you change hardware that you run into trouble, a motherboard change will require you to purchase a new license.

no more than 10 times, at most. in special circumstances sometimes microsoft will make exceptions, but rarely.
