There shouldn't be any problem. You are allowed a total of 6 devices, one of which must be a computer. So de-authorise of of the readers; authorise the new computer; de-authorise the old computer; and finally re-authorise the reader.

You should deauthorize your LAPTOP before you rebuild it not your reader. Why de-auth the readers just to reformat your laptop?
