Somebody can help me about how to change the Xp Product
Identification ?
I had a trial version installed, and now i want to change
the Key without install the XP again, do you think this
is possible ?

Marco.
 
You cannot simply change the Product Key. You'll need a
"full version" of Windows XP and use the new CD and
Product Key to perform a "repair install". If the trial version
was XP Pro, you must use a "full version" of XP Pro. If the
trial version was XP Home, you must use a "full version" of
XP Home Edition.
