WTF?
I have Windows XP Pro, and have never acutally registered it. Its a legal/authentic version, but the only thing that gives me shit about it is Word/Excel stuff; and it sitll lets me run the programs, its just like " Hey, you need to register or else we with -blahblahblahblahblah- "
Its a false threat, I have never had it do anything to me.

You're lucky then.
If they do it, you will have to call them and they give u this HUGE a*s number to enter to get u back into windows.

Bleh I have the home version... Fuxx0r...... what im wondering is if I go shell out the cash for my own home ver will I be able to register it with that password or am I just leading up to a hard drive wipe... I appreciate the info and help guys... |
All you need is a CD key for Home. If you buy your own copy, all you need to do is enter that code.
However, if you can get a copy of XP Pro somewhere, you can use the CD key on this board. It'll work just fine. You may have some issues if you ever call Microsoft's tech support but it will activate and update with no hassle.
As a side note, if someone gives you a key that starts with FCKGW, don't bother using it. You can install it but the moment you try to update it, it'll shut down.
you dont have to register winxp ever, but if you want to be able to apply patches, you must have registration enabled.
it's trivial to disable.
