Tried to change my key using the procedure from

h*tp://www.labmice.net/WindowsXP/articles/changeID.htm

Found some good keys and when I tried to change the key, all
were invalid. My current key is the one at the top of the Corp
keys FCKGW

Does this procedure work?

Thanks
Gary
:angry:

edit by rad: just made the link so it wasn't a hyper link.

Found the error of my ways, was using Pro instead of Corp to search for the key. The Corp seach gave me no keys, so I used one on the list and it changed.
Is this I have to do to install SR1?

Gary

thanks for the link man. I've seen this before but never tryed it. glad to hear it works.

Yeah,

Thanks for the link, I will check this one :lol:

I never had to activate to get it running, Will it ask me to activate after I changed Keys?

Gary

I actually posted that link (See XP Black Listed Keys thread). Yeah all the keys on that site are BLACKLISTED, thats why they don't work ;)

Where do you find good keys at?

Gary

Also, what is bluelist and blacklist key's and how do you tell tem apart?

Gary

@lost-in-space

this thread is no longer useful, tks for the link anyway. the article in that page has been removed shit! i was late and missed the chance to see it.

as so many average users requested i'd put this here:
if u wanna change to change the product ID in Windows XP, do it in both below:
go to Registry by Run > Type: Regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > ProductId

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > WindowsNT > CurrentVersion > ProductId

you have to change the Product ID in both location, identically :)

@mcored

not no more! no can do. The product key cannot be changed in this way
