On a quest for knowledge!
I had to re activate my girlfriends GENUINE version of XP home today, because it gave me the "there had been a significant hardware change on the system" screen
I/we have not made any changes since yesterday when everything was fine, so I guessed maybe VIRUS but none found.
Then I remembered the other day I installed XP on a new system for a friend I had built for him , but used my key just to get through the install process as he had not recieved his product key yet from supplier.
I think he may of then given my code to someone else and they have activated it on their machine
I have re activated XP on my girlfriends machine and all went well with M$ automated line but I thought that maybe I should register the product key to me, so no one else can do it again !!!
