Hey guys,
I just installed winXP home edition on one of my older dell laptops (and it's running great). But it keeps telling me that I have 30days to activate or it will expire. any suggestions would be great. ThanksI live to serve

Activate.
That is the biggest fool thing we have ever done. The Atomic bomb will never go off, and I speak as an expert in explosives.

Too bad XP isn't like Vista's reduced functionality mode. If I didn't activate my copy of Vista I could still get 1 hour of internet. With XP you have nothing starting on the 30th day. i_XpUser
i have two legal 100% legitimate windows XP Pro disks one will expire the other wont without activation however for some reason one key wont work for the other. you know what i mean. you should be able to use one disk and 50 different keys will work. with legal liscences of course
