1) First get your hands on a good copy of Longhorn 4008 (longhorn_usa_4008_x86fre_procd1.iso 687,122,432 bytes).
2) Burn to a cd.
3a) Install from an opertaing system such as XP (seems to work best!)
3b) Use this key to install: CKY24-Q8QRH-X3KMR-C6BCY-T847Y.
4) Longhorn has a new setup it will not ask you any questions throughout setup so just start the install and leave if you wish!
5) After the setup is complete you will find yourself at introduction screen similiar to that of Windows XP asking you for the users on the computer.
6) Fill that out and login.

b.) Run the file winxp_crk.exe (included in package) as Administrator.
c.) Reboot into normal mode.
d.) Click "Activate Windows" either on the start menu or when it popups up in system tray
e.) Choose to activate by telephone.

As a side note, I've noticed in the licsnes agreement, it refers to 'Longhorn' as 'Whistler' ('Whistler' was the codename for XP) Dose this mean it is fake? I D/L'd the file listed on this board. It's the same name as the one listed in the tutorial.
