Windows XP activation

[Guest]

Hi!

Windows XP Home Edition SP2.

I have a problem with my HP dv5000. After my harddrive crashed I can't
activate my new one. I ran a ghost on the old disc to a new, then I started a
windows repair installation on my new disc. This was no problem, but when i
boot this disc up now, it says that windows needs to be activated before
logon. I choose yes I want to activate windows but the activationguide
doesn't start instead I come back to the login page. This just goes around
and around. I can login in safe mode, but just without network. When I try to
run the activation guide in this mode, it says that I can't activate windows
XP in safe mode. What can I do?

Best Regards
Jimmy Svensson

Hi:

Try get a look to this KB:

You are prompted to activate Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 every time
that you start the computer

Maybe it is not the exacta cause, but give a try.
