Removing a defunct computer from my Norton Activation

Hello,

This is my first post so please forgive me.

 

been a happy Norton customer for a long time.

I purchased 360 when it first came out, and at that point, my machine was already several years old.

Unfortunately last year, my computer sufferred a total failure. To cut a long story short, built a new computer, installed 360, and installed 360 on my sons computer.

 

But now I am looking to add a 3rd machine, but I do not have any available activations left

 

I did a subject search and did indeed find this thread, which seemed relevant

http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-360/Removing-computers-from-subscription/td-p/224268

 

The only difference is that I do not have the option to "remove" norton 360, since the machine has assigned to the junk pile and hard-disk formatted.

So I have 2 "active" machines in our household, yet all 3 subscriptions are "used" - how do I recover the activation that is associted with a computer that has been dead for a year?

 

Thanks in advance.
