[the_animal]

wasup ma ppl!

i recently got a new comp and i used the windows xp CD which i had used previously, but obviously i need to install service pack 2..

BUT..

when i try to install it it says that the serial number is not vallid ( i be on some illegal shit na'mean' .. but previously had no problems

the main thing i wanna know is if i buy the service pack CD of microsoft CD will i be able to get away with installing it..

does microsoft kno whether you are using illegal only if u are connected to the internet, wat about if i disconnect the cables and shit ??

first u should make ur copy of windows genuine....by getting a legit copy......but like most of us just use one of the MANY cracks out there that make your windows legit....then try installing it......

i got one question.....are u having trouble downloading it from the microsoft site/windows update....if so.....you can get the developers pack from the microsoft website...and it doesnt verify whether your windows is legit or fake b4 downloading/installing....

heres the link to SP2:

nah i dont have trouble accessing the service pack its just that when i am in the middle of installing that it says my serial number is not valid and cannot install..also i dnt wanna reboot because thats long

but MS have the service pack pre installed on a CD to buy from their website, will i be able to install that without error messages ?

No, you have to get a Windows XP Validation Crack I think
