XP activation Manraj <mmarhala[ at ]gmail.com> 5/10/2007 1:51:38 AM I have installed window xp media center edition by using key from my freind which need to be activated. I did at that time using some crack. It worked fine for 2-3 months. but now all of a sudden, i recieve the infamous activation loop problem that goes as follows.. ( may be I have been using update window all the time) your copy of windows is not activated please do so (click ok) your copy of windows has been activated (sends back to logon screen) and repeat. i cant go into the system. But I can go through safe mode.is there anyway i can get past this problem because i have gigs of music and photos that i cant afford to lose. what I was thinking of either 1. Changing the key by going into registry (through safe mode) if possible 2. Try some other valid key. Please give me some solution to overcome this problem Thanks in anticipation Manraj

This ng is for 64bit operating systems, of which XP Pro x64 is only one. Your copy of Windows is 32bit.
