Microsoft Plans Restrictions on Fixes

This is how I chaged mine. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Using the 2K3&XPKeygen.exe (92kb). Open the keyen then choose windows xp pro VLK
then it shows
640-0
640-999999
changeit to
640-500
640-600
then click on generate and use that key.

Heres how I changed my key & PID. First you must have XP VLK only! If you have SP2 installed, you MUST have an XP VLK slipstreamed w/SP2 for my instructions to work. If you're running SP1 or less a regular XP VLK install disk will work. But the upgrade will remove SP1.

Many people won't like this. Bugger off. For the rest have your generated keys by your side. Load your XP install disk into your read only rom. Click on it. Bunch of options blah blah blah. Choose install. Choose upgrade NOT fresh install. It'll go through all the regular rigga moroll. Then it'll say install your product key. Guess which one you'll install? The old sh*tty non 640 PID serial? NO! One of the new shiny generated keys.
Thats it. Let it go through the rest of the install. Done. You might lose some settings but all your data will be there.

why do we have to do an upgrade with the windows cd? Cant we just generate the cd key for 640 then use rockxp to change it?
