I tried this for myself and it worked!
I went to a lab computer in my university and used Magic Jellybean keyfinder do get the key. I then downloaded a copy of XP corporate and installed it with my school's key. Low and behold it was genuine. No crack cuz it's a valid vlk key.
Try it yourself.
That's the magic of Windows Corp. :happy:Quote:

Why steal keys when you can generate them?

That same key is on google, on tons of sites. Change your key to this and it will always be valid, they can't ban it cause its the key for all of their sales.
no it doesnt... the same key can be activated multiple time, and you're and idiot if you buy a demo from Best Buy :cool:Quote:

Hey Abu , I see you got your Nuts back ! :01:

I already got one that was not a volume license. I installed it on my laptop and can't install it anywhere else.Quote:

I can't believe you hav'nt found a work around for the WGA pain in the ass .
Thats so fucking easy you'll laff . Do you need help or ?
install a corporate edition , much greaterrrr ;)
no keys , nothing needed , everything goes automatically
Etho edition is outstanding good in this situation .
student release is bulletproof..corp a lot of problems in my opinion
how about vista!! would it work with this method?
oh... just get ClonY's one click activator for vista.Quote:

You can't get perfectly genuine keys w/ a keygen. Read my earlier post.Quote:
