Title: XP serial discontinued
Post by: mcpwnalds on September 05, 2007, 09:06:10 PM

I bought a legit copy of Xp Pro sp1 a long time ago, and have since been using the same serial whenever I would wipe my computer.

Now it says that I have used this serial key too many times and is giving me the 30 days warning.

Since I actually OWN it, is there any way to bypass this? Or worst case is there a way to crack it?
