I buy a education version and do not install up to now, I don\'t not like to take the activation because my computer is DIY, I will change some parts many time. M$ro$oft make me trouble, so I still using Windows 2K up to now. I learn linux now and will change my OS to it. ASAP.

I have seen the following on here:

I have the easiest way which took me 5min, ok you have to try this way.

(This works on XP Home Edition 2600 don?t know about the pro edition can be done anytime within the 30 day trial)
First off go to www.ultraedit.com and download a free copy of ultraedit32
Then make a copy of your winlogon.exe (copy&paste it to your desktop you can find the winlogon.exe Here-- right click your start button click on explore And find your WINDOWS folder click on this and have a look around for a folder called system32 open this and in there somewhere you?ll find the winlogon.exe
Open the winlogon.exe with UltraEdit
Once open scroll down to position -
00039660h: EB E9 8B D1 57 33 C0 89 02 89 42 08 89 42 10 89
And change these numbers to the ones below
00039660h: EB E9 C7 06 01 00 00 00 83 EE 04 C3 89 42 10 89
Now your winlogon.exe has been altered save it to a floppy (Delete the winlogon.exe on your Desktop)
Now! You need to boot in to safe mode and find the winlogon files,
click your start button and click the Run? icon
Copy&paste this address( C:WindowsSystem32Dllcache ) into the Run program
And click OK this will open the dllcache folder find the winlogon.exe and Delete it
Now Copy&Paste your altered winlogon.exe in its place.
Nearly finished
Copy&Paste this Address: ( C:windowsSystem32 ) into the Run?.
Program and click OK this will open the System32 Folder and find the Winlogon.exe
drag it to your Desktop and rename Winlogon2.exe and place the winlogon.exe
you Altered in its place.
Now reboot your System!
To find out if it has worked click your Activation button and you will see your copy of Windows XP is Activated
May be a good idea to download a copy of XP Antispy after all this Search in google.com \"XP Antispy\" for this.

Read the whole thread. Tried the hex fix on the swedish version: xp 2002, professional (doesn\'t state any build). Now, I\'m not 100% that this contains sp1, so I\'d like to know from some1 how to easily check this.

The cd i used was a recovery-cd from Dell, but can guarantee that that whitout the fix windows prompted me to activate, so THIS dell version at least wasn\'t \"prepared\" for non-activation.

After replacing with the modified winlogon.exe from the recovery console (boot from cd and press \"R\") it started fine. I changed dates and so forth. rebooted and checked \"msoobe.exe /a\" which told me it was allready activated.

So, fueld by my success I went on to make a fixed \"cd\" using: winiso and modifyPE.exe (checksum app). And whilst it installed fine I still had to activate at the end of the installation. The funny thing is that I only had to overwrite the two winlogons with the same file I had on my fixed CD ... and it was again activated. Wierd stuff.

Oh, and I should say that the aforementioned 10-byte hex string was NOT to be found at 39660h, but rather at 395e1h. So if anyone can tell me how to find out what sp version is on the O/S I could thereby confirm that the hex-fix also works on integrated SP1 versions of XP. Wouldn\'t that be nice http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'\' />

I would be much surprised if \"version 2002\" didn\'t mean SP1

cheers

I\'ve installed the Finnish version of build 2600 (SP1 included). I\'ve tried the hex edit thing but on line 0003660 the numbers are totally different (the same as in the post above). I\'ve also tried the reg edit thingy but there\'s no Activation requiered line there. and also the other regedit (with the changed binery thing) doesn\'t work for me.

FDV here, too lazy to log in...

Anonymous asks \"Do you think it would be possible to edit the winlogon.ex_ on the CD, and make a new CD, with the modified version, then install from it?\"

Here is the workings behind editing a file, making a new CD-RW, and installing from it.

That said, based on my experiences trying to de-active Windows File Protection in Win2k at installation, I suspect this won\'t work.
(Sure the site\'s about removing IE but it\'s IMHO a good source for info on editing files and then slipstreaming them)

I had this same problem with the unmountable boot drive issue, I had to reset my BIOS to Fail-Safe settings and it installed fine after that. I am not sure which BIOS setting screws up the HD but you can go back in and make one change at a time to see which it could be. Hope this helps

I dont understand how to see whether my version of Xp is corp or oem or retail?

I tryed: Right click my computer icon
properties.

<- But what should there stand, if is a corp version ??

[Anonymous]

Hi,
The best solution seems to be windows xp corporate edition which doesn\'t require activation.But, if I install SP1 on corp edition will I have to activate it??
THANKS
Alen

hmm.. In an attempt to end this long overdrawn thread.... some answers for you folks..   The registry entry that someone (apparently jokingly) keeps reposting is useless in regards to activation.. The hexedit job mentioned worked long ago on no sp1 copies of home and even pro. In sp1 there is no such string of hex and will not work anymore.. I will only say one more thing.. go to google.com an search for \"Windows XP SP1 Reset\"....    Now please people... drop this thread.. And dont respong asking what you should find on google.. I will not direct anyone any further

[Anonymous]

I can\'t find the \"activation required\" key you are talking about.  Is that for the pro or home version?

[Anonymous]

Finally, A useful post among all the blather here!

[jumpman23]

Okay, I right clicked on MY COMPUTER and it says MICROSOFT XP Professional

So im assuming i have the PRO edition.

Now my question, i\'ve had the product, pirated of course, for a couple of days now.

i have never seen anything prompt that says \"YOU MUST ACTIVATE THIS PRODUCT\"  

so does that mean that my product does not need activation?  

or how can i find out if my product has been activated (which i doubt cuz i never did) or if my product needs activation?

CUZ i read somewhere that it gives you 50 boots or 30 days to activate, or some nonsense like that.  

btw, i have no internet connection on the computer running XP, do i still need to activate it?

why is my hard drive going crazy when xp is running
