I have been able to use the same DVD of SH5 I purchased years ago on several computers successfully. As long as you have SH5 registered with Uplay you can use it on other machines.
The key is that the UbisoftGameLauncher that installs with the game is not enough. You must go online to your Uplay account and download the UbisoftGameLauncher App and install it all over again. It will give you direct access to the log onto UPlay through their dialog box.
Once you have the dialog box you can click the gear box to change settings. Go to Network settings and check the box to 'Always start Uplay in offline mode'.
The problem in this case is robmypro is not able to access his account. I had forgotten my password too but all I did was enter my registered email address and they sent a new one automatically.
I believe any new account would be lock out from a previous accounts registered product not the computer.
Do what you can to recover your original account that had the DVD register to it. You must know the email you used at the time.
