WinXp Activation Crack?

[smith]

dear bwana, i tried what you said on the home edition of win xp. The first one is fine. But i am not able to find the second one, that is the activation key reqd. in winlogon. There is no such key there. Please help me as iam stuck. i also tried safe mode and administrator log in

Thanks

I tried your method on my winXP 2002 version(build 2600) with sp1(Latest version ) installed. It worked very well till I changed the system date 2 yrs ahead to check and then I got locked outside the login screen.I had to reinstall everything.Can you or anyone suggest a better method?

These techniques just do not work!

1.  You can\'t manipulate winlogon.exe from Safe Mode because the file is IN USE.  It cannot be renamed or deleted.  You have to use Recovery Mode (by booting from the installation CD).

2.  The modified winlogon.exe file as posted does not work (XP home, build 2600).  If you replace the file from Recovery Mode and try to boot up you get the error \"User Interface Failure - msgina.dll failed to load\"

When are you guys gonna get serious and post a crack that works?

Is it possible to change something in the norwegian version of WinXP, so it will accept product keys from the english version??
Thank you for all answers!

does this work with Academic XP Pro upgrade 2002 (with SP1)?

Thanks.

Unless you are using a copy of Xp with SP1 installed,  the Winlogon Hack DOES work (For Home/Pro OEM)
Follow the posts with reference to Ultra-Edit32 editing proggie.
Modify and replace the winlogon.exe file as stated in previous posts , follow it word for word. Replace the x2 Winlogon .exe\'s as stated.
There are lots of people responding to posts on this forum who have used this WORKING hack and have been running it for well over a year with no problems.
BTW. Dissing the forum and its posters hurts ur chances of eva getting help here and some of the most helpful and talented people frequent this forum.
SO....You just shot yourself in the foot esentially.

Peace Out... And Respect to all Tech Guide Members.

For all people with the Winlogon.exe hack who are concerned with installing SP1.
Check this link--> http://grc.com/xpdite/xpdite.htm  (very scary !!)
Recommended that all people without SP1 installed to download this small file which deactivates a very serious security flaw in all non sp1 releases of XP.
I have attached this file directly to this site.


Peace Out....

I have XP Pro with SP1.  Are there instructions for that?

[Person]

No, You can\'t take the setupp.ini file, nor can you use the ghost image either.
If you take a ghost image and restore it afterwards, the hardware will not be recognized, forcing you to reinstall it, and making you reactivate it anyway...it\'s one of those really really long cycles, until you realize that you\'ve been doing something meaningless all along...

I think that\'s a good idea, but i don\'t think it would work that easy, I wouldn\'t know, because I\'m using the corporate edition

Previous anonymus guy who said this:

not so previous anonymous guy:

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
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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=\'\' />

wadda ja mean \"few days later\"  did your computer run for a few days before rebooting it? or did you crack it without feeling obligated to try it out?

With a hexeditor edit a copy of winlogon.exe (c:windowssystem32winlogon.exe)
Change position 39662h (or 39660h sometimes)
8B D1 57 33 C0 .....
with these bytes
C7 06 01 00 00 00 83 EE 04 C3

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

can this method activate other languages version ?
are those bytes different ?
and how about SP1 ?

many thanks.

This works with XP BEFORE installing SP1, after the install of SP1 you\'ll get the activation process back.... Any ideas on getting rid of it?
