5. DONE! Your Windows XP is genuine now.

I am paranoid, so I want to know if this is real… THANKS!

Bypass serial key windows xp download

  1. It only bypasses the activation.It doesn't make it legal.

  2. call microsoft for help they will surely help you

  3. Doing this would be piracy to Microsoft because you did not activate Windows. If it is asking for you to activate Windows still, and the online activation process does not successfully activate, try using the phone activation wizard, and if it asks how many PCs the product key has been used on say 1.

  4. call microsoft US via skype and activate. it's free

  5. If you use genuine windows xp so first you do phone activation

  6. Modifying the registry will probably work and will, on the other hand, probably screw your computer.

    • If you know what are you doing then editing registry will only solve many problems.

      • Yes. I actually mean : if the question's poster knows what the code above will do or knows what to touch, then it'll solve the problem, but if the code is malicious or the person just start to randomly change values .. then you know you'll be in the heart of Windows problems.

        • Even if you are not completely sure what are you doing you can still do something that its called backup_before_making_changes.

        • Yes a registry backup and a restore point would help but that's only if you still can access Windows or the Safe Mode and things didn't go horribly wrong.

  7. The string 'DigitalProductId' should contain an encoded version of the Product Key currently used by the Windows installation.

    So to answer your question: The one you found on the internet might be genuine but since it is from the internet that is unlikely.

    If you have a Microsoft Windows XP sticker on the side of the machine it should have a Product Key which is indeed valid.

    Now, you said you used that key but it is still reported as not genuine.
    - make sure you activated Windows via the internet or via the activation hotline.
    - try the multitude of solutions to fix genuine issues with a valid license (see link)

    If all fails I would suggest to reinstall Windows as the previous owner might have used some activation 'remover' or something that broke the Genuine check.

  8. Firstly make sure that the License Key on the sticker is for the exact Windows version installed on the PC. OEM/Retail,Home/Professional these are all different editions and require different license keys.

  9. If you have a genuine Windows key then the obvious and logical choice would be for phone activation. If you start messing around in the registry you may be lucky or you may well disable your machine!

    • It helps If you KNOW what are you doing. No luck required and it will work.

  10. modifying some part of the registry does not make it genuine, it just bypasses the windows genuine activation or WGA so that it won't effect some of the windows softwares from running.

    • Well.. I wanna make it genuine because it is.. it has this annoying logo on the bottom.. it says it is a 'blocked OEM license key'

  11. if it is genuine key, perhaps you need to phone activation, means you have to call microsoft by phone to activate it.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307890

    • Yeah.. but shouldn't it be genuine? Because I used the product key on the microsoft sticker that all computers should have, right?

      • maybe be someone saw that key of yours and is using the same and it got pirated

    • Anyways.. I'm just wondering if this reg. editor will work..

      • you took it from here
        http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/21885-Windows-XP-tells-me-that-I-need-to-reactivate-Windows-within-3-days-!

        you can try, It can say it's activated , but after some time perhaps it will ask to activate it again!

        How to Make Windows XP Genuine Forever
        http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Windows-XP-Genuine-Forever

    • Why bother? If you bought windows, you can even use a pirated copy instead and its still legal.

      • activation can also be success with (pirated) copy but some copies are not well done like drivers corrupted..this can cause other stability problems like explorer hangs..

        • Thats why you trial on error. You can either download and try multiple moded windows xp copies and see which one works best, or altrenatively you can just mod it yourself with nlite to make them suitable to your personal taste. Thats what I did, I modded many dlls to replace icons and edit dialogs and it works better than original (thanks to tweaks)

        • having perso Windows xp its very good thing:)

Learning has never been so easy!

I ran a repair on XP and after the repair I got a message saying that I needed to activate windows before I can log in.Choosing 'No' would send be back to the login screen and choosing 'Yes' would begin to load Windows, but only as far as showing me the desktop with no icons.

I was able to fix this problem by starting the PC in safe mode with command prompt. I then typed 'explorer' into the command prompt to load Windows. Next I clicked on 'Start' - 'Run' and in the 'Run' box I typed
'Rundll32.exe syssetup,SetupOobeBnk'. This extended my activation to 30 days. Even though this extended my activation period, I was still unable to get the activation program to start up.

I fixed that by going into 'regedit' and searching for the 'wpaevents' folder. I then changed the permissions to include 'User' for 'Full control'. I also went to my c: drive and changed the permissions to include 'User', 'Administrator', and 'System' for 'Full control'. I rebooted the machine and then was able to run Windows activation.

I got all my info from:
http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/55233-45-msoobe
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-security/this-copy-of-windows-must-be-activated-before-you/387f3367-5fc4-4aa1-937d-6788a626029d

6 Steps total

Step 1: Start the PC into Safe mode with command prompt

Power on the PC and press F8 right before Windows begins to load. Select 'Safe mode with command prompt'

Step 2: Run Explorer from the Command prompt to start Windows

Once the Command prompt loads, type in 'explorer' to start Windows within Safe mode.

Step 3: Run 'Rundll32.exe syssetup,SetupOobeBnk' from the 'Run' box.

Now click on 'Start' and in the 'Run' box type
'Rundll32.exe syssetup,SetupOobeBnk'. Press Enter. This will re-set activation to 30 days

Step 4: Modify the wpaevents folder in the Registry.

Once more, click on 'Start' then go to the 'Run' box and type in 'Regedit'. Make sure that in Regedit you are highlighting 'My Computer' at the very top. Now go up to 'Edit' then 'Find' and type in 'wpaevents' then press Enter. Right click on the 'wpaevents' folder and go down to 'Permissions'. Highlight 'User' and place a check mark in the box labeled 'full control'. Click 'Apply' and exit regedit.

Step 5: Modify the C: drives permissions.

Now double click 'My Computer'. Right click the C: drive and go down to 'Properties'. Now click on the 'Security' tab and modify 'User', 'Administrator', and 'System' so that they all have 'Full control'. Click 'Apply' and reboot the PC.

Step 6: Run Windows activation

Now Windows activation will run and the PC will become usable again.

This How-to is intended to assist in recovering a PC from a faulty repair install. It is not a tutorial on bypassing / extending the Windows activation grace period. I don't condone piracy, but I also don't believe in locking a user from their data with faulty control mechanisms.

    Aaarrgh. I was so hopeful, because this post added the permissions steps, but when I do as described, the login after saying 'yes' to activation just shows the wallpaper forever

    [Update] I left the PC on the wallpaper, no Explorer, no icons all night long and discovered the PC must've logged-off or rebooted during the night. When I logged-on this next time, the expected Windows Activation screen greeted me and I was able to successfully activate!

    I used this method, and still get the wallpaper screen forever. I am working to recover an old computer which has had it's ethernet controller fail, as well as the internal wi-fi. I have attached a USB wi-fi adapter, and run the installation software in safemode. When I reboot, I still get the 'This copy of Windows must be activated with Microsoft before you can log on. Do you want to activate Windows now?' Right back to the wallpaper.

    This is the result of a Windows Repair, XP Home Edition SP3 Build 2600.xpsp.080413-2111

    I have verified with Microsoft that the software is a legal copy, but they want $180 to talk me through validation.

    Thanks for any further suggestions
