XP and the WGA
I installed a slipstream with a known good Serial of XP. The box says it is activated, so how do I get rid of the WGA pop up box?

Just google it. There's a patch out there.

Re: XP and the WGA
I see plenty of hacks, not what Im trying to do. I would like to fix it. The serial is legit.

Then call Microsoft and the should be able to fix it / issue you an activation code on the phone.
Or have they stopped supporting XP activation? (I don't think so)

Re: XP and the WGA

Re: XP and the WGA
So I changed the slip stream to delete the auto-input serial.
Manually added the serial at the correct time, and no WGA. Go figure.
