Refurbished computer question?

My nephew bought a refurbished PC that came with windows 7 and the COA it also has the original COA for XP Professional. I'm looking for an XP computer to play an old game with and he has gotten a new laptop so I'm thinking about buying this one from him. My question is are both of those COA's stil valid for this machine because I would want to restore it to XP?

    Both CoAs remain valid.  You could even, if you like, revert to XP, then install Windows 7 to a separate partition to provide a dual-boot system.

    XP is outdated now it was good at time, try Windows 7 it quite similar to Windows XP.

    XP is unsupported, so it is unrecommended.
