Windows XP re-install activation

[Guest]

Hi I just attempted to re-instally xp on my laptop. Every seemded to work fin
until I re started my machine. It came up with a error saying i must activate
windows before i could log-in. So i clicked on the active button & it said
that it is already active. Then it either crashes or takes me back to the
screen where you can change user accounts & asks me the same thing.

Can anyone help please?????

Hi:

May be you already know, but take a look to this one:

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