There has been a thread about this on the "Talk" list recently, you might want to look it up. It's subject line was "Rebuilding Delphi / comparing installations".
Other then that, take a moment to think about your components. If you're building most of your components from source chances are you can work something out. If you're NOT building your components from source then you're using an installer. If you're using an installer, and the installer is requesting an serial number or any other kind of anti-piracy thingy, there's probably no way of installing the components without running the installer.
