WinXP wants activation w/o any hardware changes

[RealGomer]

I'm cleaning out software from my pc I'm going to donate to a Church. When I
rebooted, WinXP SP2 said it needed to be activated. Of course trying to
activate over the internet fails. What gives?

WGA Forum? A quick search did not turn up a microsoft community with that
string. Can you just tell me what the answer was AND where the WGA forum
is?
