How to Activate Windows XP without Product Key

When you have installed windows XP and try to activate you get messages like “your product key is not genuine or the number of activation has been exceeded” and then it tells you to call Microsoft to get the key. Instead of going through this trouble to get a new genuine product key, solve this problem by following these steps:

STEPS:

* Click on Start
* Find and Click “Run”

* Type regedit
*Click the plus next to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE”
*Click the plus next to “SOFTWARE”
*Click the plus next to “Microsoft”
*Click the plus next to “Windows NT”
*Click the plus next to “CurrentVersion”
*Click “WPAEvents”
*On the right panel, find “OOBETimer” then double click it.
*Now, Delete all the Values by highlighting it, then delete it
*Then type in this value without the quotation mark “FF D5 71 D6 8B 6A 8D 6F D5 33 93 FD”
*Then after that click OK,
*Then on the left panel right click WPAEvents, then click on permissions
*Then click System or SYSTEM, then Deny Full Control, then Click OK.
*Then Exit Registry Editor.
*To Verify that it works, go to start, then “activate windows”, or go to start, then all programs, then “activate windows”. Or go to the Start menu, click Run.
