|    Win XP says my install CD is not valid    |
|    21 Jan 11 09:57:36    |
      I had to reinstall Win XP. The dang validity check kept telling me       that my registration key for the Win XP Install CD was no good. I       bought the Win XP CD along with my new comp about a year ago. It *is*       the install CD that installed the original Win XP on my machine. The       key sticker is right on the side of the comp's case. How in the hell       can MS tell me the CD key is not correct?              Has anyone else had this problem?              (I should *never* have trusted Redmond by installing that "validity"       check crap on my machine.)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
