I don't understand.....You said "All I did was accept the license agreement
and register" and they you say you "didn't have to register."

Which one is true? Did you register or not?

Bet you have a big name brand computer who install a dedicated version of XP
for that computer only. Bet also you did not get disk for full installation
but a recovery disk only.
