here is something interesting.... MS now has a site to detect if your copy of xp is legit... well i figured since there are so many releases of Xp out
maybe one of them doesnt work with MS site.. and some do...
mine turned out to be invalid... (used FTFISO on my install)
post your results

Already checked with different cd-keys.
Some turned out to be valid, some invalid.
The invalid one works fine so far. No problem with Windows Update.

This is a strong indicator that your operating system is genuine, however the Windows Validation Assistant cannot make a final determination.


WinXP SP2 slipstream ... Very Happy

It installs ProductIDGatherer.WindowsGatherer ActiveX control, which sounds ominous... so I disabled it using IE's "Manage Add-ons..."

I would never let MS check if my copy of Windows XP is valid or not, who knows what data they transmit, and who cares anyway. I still can use windows update and thats all i am interested in.

I agree with you m8, people with pirated WinXP going to check if their WinXP is valid, nice job for letting Microsoft know your IP and installing some ActiveX controls on your computer. Don't wonder is somebody someday knocks on your door to see your "licensed" WinXP. Good Luck and keep the "good" job!

V5 update only blocks known corp. keys. Same as V4 did with SP1 update. The above site seems to perform a more thorough check of the pid.
