I've just had to repair an XP Home installation. Corrupted files meant I had
to put back the files in the Windows\system32\config directory. After I had
the system up and going again, XP tells me it requires activation .... why???
None of the hardware changed. It was reinstalled over the top of the old
one, and wasn't a clean install. It was a repair using restore point snapshot
files to get the system working. Nothing has changed!!
Can anyone shed some light on this, or suggest a way around it?
