this copy of windows must be activated with microsoft before you can log on..do you want to activate windows now?

i pressed NO...but it doesnt take me to the desktop, it brings me back to the log in screen.

what do i do? not trying to do illegal stuff here...i know i have to activate it sooner or later

because the whole point of activation is taht you cant use windows unless you prove it's legit. :frusty:

If it is actually i copied/downloaded version then you should have, and still should, download the corporate version.

hm...i've read from tutorials that you can acess the the desktop without activation but you only have 15 days to activate before it stops functioning

corporate version?

the corporate version is what system admins use in large businesses. Since they need to isntall it on possibly hundreds of computers it would take too long to activate them all so they buy corporate versions.
The corporate version is the exact same as regular XP Pro except that the activation isn't in it. :)

In a nutshell, what he's saying is that there is no activation in the corporate version. :cool:

Get it using bittorrent.
No actual links are allowed but i could PM you one if you can't find it (i'm sure every single torrent site will have an xp torrent).

But there was an emule link aswell !

Someone help me here , some kind soul ! ;) I mean help old AzNsMaRtGuY333

:helpsmili I know I'm being a smart ass ! But the apathy I see on this board lately is a cause for concern . Its not how we use to be . Someone asked for help and 10 people jumped in. Now sadly it's the same 5 or 6 people who are starting to say ............ who gives a fuk! I 'v fineshed my rant . But still thought we were better . Most of my best help is done thru PM 's these days , I find it satisfying. but JMHO . :)

Not many users here, AzNsMaRtGuY333 rely on Kazaa for their P2P needs. Bitorrent and eDonkey are the more favored networks these days, IMO. If you want a decently working version of XP Professional with SP2 integrated into it bad enough, then I suggest you obtain at least a copy of eMule and use the ed2k links provided. :)
