WinXp Activation Crack?

[Hasse]

Thanks, but I´m still looking. I´ve got a Danish version XP-proff.
build 2600, and finding the reg done is easy, but what about
the \"activation required\"? It dosn´t exist in my version. Would
be happy to hear any suggestions, You might have.

Fireball i just have to say you are the man!!!!
I just bought a brand new copy of Windows XP Pro (2600) and did your winlogon change and it WORKS!!!!
I currently have it set for 2005 and there are no problems. For all those people who say it doesn\'t work you must take him seriously when he says that the computer CANNOT every boot in normal mode before the new winlogon is put in in safemode.  I tested it, it won\'t work.  You must boot in safemode, after installation but before first reboot, get a command prompt, replace the two files with your new ones and reboot. It will work, and not just betas.  I bought my copy a month ago retail.  It will work.

Thanks fireball
you saved me alot of money,

I just have to ask how did you change the date, if you did it from windows then you may still need to activate it, but if the BIOS was used then your safe http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'\' />

The activation winlogon will work exactly as it says. I took a copy (XP home) from a new labtop pre installed version (backup disc) bought from dell and installed it on to my comp. I followed the steps to the t, and everything worked. The only thing you must not forget to do is to rename the original winlogon, otherwise windows will inform you that the file is being used by another user or program (I got held up on that for a sec) I rebooted and worked fine, then changed my clock settings in the bios a year later, no problems. This definately works

I quess I\'m a litle dense.  How do you expand the winlogon.ex_ file before you install XP?

[Anonymous]

if the file is in iso format you need winISO or similar to extract it

previous anonymous guy,

one little problem: you said:

Then find this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsNTCurrentVersionWinLogon
change \"Activation Required\" key value from 1 to 0

Said key does not exist.  any ideas what to do?

thnx

JUST A WARNING TO ALL WHO CRACKED XP SO YOU DON\'T HAVE TO ACTIVATE!

Do not apply the Q306676 update as it replaces WINLOGON.EXE

I know a lot of people cracked XP activation with this file, so this update will foul things up...

[Funkster]

Gray,
I don\'t know how to edit the file winlogon.exe before you install, but your supposed to edit after installing and before the first boot up (right after the finalizing installation). Just hit F8 after your bios boot up and you\'ll get 3 safemode options. Select the top option and wait for start up, after choose administator as your user, now you shouldn\'t have any problem editing the file.

Yes, I had this problem too... I was trying a number of things, and one of the things I tried was just changing the RegDone to 1.

Then a few days later when I rebooted, I went to \"Activate Windows\" and it said \"WINDOWS ACTIVATED\" http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'\' />

I need help I cant find Dllcache, has it been renamed or something?Cheers

[bmbk]

the dllcache is a hidden folder  ,so u cannot view it using windows me, xp or 2000. if you have 2 os on the drive another is win 98, boot on the win98 and u can see the folder. there is a dos command also to enable viewing it, but i am not sure, u can find it at previous page under this topic

[Anonymous]

That\'s my understanding as well.  You may use one copy of xp on a desktop AND 1 laptop.   CORRECT!!!!

Hex Key method Rules. Saved my ass. Quick,easy and spot on! Take ur time and you\'ll be rewarded. Use Ultra-Edit32 to modify string. Thank you whoever spent their long days figuring this one out. You Rule!

[bmbk]

during the last reboot my windows xp will ask you want to activate now or later, but i seen someone pc that this question will not be asked. so is there anyway to remove it .
