Windows XP Activation

Replacing your motherboard will generally warrant a Windows reinstall anyway since so much has changed hardware-wise, and the installed HAL may no longer be correct for the new motherboard anyway hence why Windows can no longer boot

the route I would take is keygen, but then I don't think you should pay for windows if you can help it :p

Yet you are more than willing to pay for a crippled OS to run on native hardware (mac) :P

if it's crippled then windows is disabled 8) try to edit file permissions in windows? LOL WHAT PERMISSIONS??

I do that all the time, what's the problem?

Windows doesn't have real permissions. It has silly "ownership."
They're not real permissions unless you can chmod them.

Just enough of a scheme to get in the way.

P.S.: I am no proponent to windows rubah, you know this. :P

They are real permissions because they can easily grant access for some users and deny access for others.

I would presume the command cacls would be the Windows equivalent to chmod. As much as I hate to say it, I prefer the granularity ACLs give over the standard unix security model - I know you can get extensions to allows linux to have this level of granularity too, but I've not had a chance to play with those

I'm understanding you bought an entire copy of windows for the updates?

Raymond.cc (the webpage) has the windows geniune advantage bypass file.
