Hi Gang,
I installed Windows XP Home using an SP2 retail CD, because my XP Home
OEM CD is SP0. I temporarily used a retail key from a different
computer to get the installation to go. Once Windows was installed I
clicked the change product key button, but it won't accept a 100%
legit OEM key. Am I screwed beyond recognition, will I have to waste
another 3+ hours and reinstall/configure? Is there some file/registry
key I can replace with the OEM version to get past this?
Thanks,
Christian Blackburn
