Normally you explicitly don't want that. If there is no technical reason, it should run on another computer. So I think, you are talking about some kind of licensing... – Dieter Meemken Jan 22 '16 at 11:47

You must ask yourself what describe this particural PC? Is it hardaware? or User? or enviroment?
When You do this You can calculate the right checksum of this one PC
You can use system register with user name to calucultate checksum
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ProductId
is unique per machine/per windows install.
or simple some Environment varable like
Environment.UserDomainName
Environment.UserName
Environment.MachineName
Each position is some way very connect to one PC
