Question about 'How do I skip the Product Activation in Windows XP?' Tuesday, September 23, 2003 at 4:35 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Iain Macdonald (4 messages posted) I have a question about XP NON-ACTIVATION. When I attemt to acivate the damn OS, zilch happens, apart from an ambiguous attempt to contact the acivation URL. This is a genuine XP installation - BUT: I had severe problems trying to install. Got the 39minute PARSE ERROR and had to search on the net for a solution - which I got from Richard. Applied it, and after 29days, tried the 'activate' button. Now I am locked out of the XP-erience. Any other mugs feel like demanding their money back? Responses to this message: re: Question about 'How do I skip the Product Activation in Windows XP?'
