How to make your xp genuine in 15 seconds, Windows XP Service Pack 2

this method works better than many others I’ve tried before. forget the cracks and injectors etc... this is the BEST WAY:

1) start > run > "regedit" (without the quotes of course)

2) go to the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents\OOBETimer

...and double-click on it. Then change some of the value data to ANYTHING ELSE...delete some, add some letters, I don't care...just change it!

Now close out regedit.

3) Go to start > run > "%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a" (again, don’t type the quotes)

4) the activation screen will come up, click on register over telephone, then click on CHANGE PRODUCT KEY, enter in this key: JG28K-H9Q7X-BH6W4-3PDCQ-6XBFJ.




Now you can do all the updates without activating, and the Genuine Microsoft Validation thingy won't bug you no more!!
