is there a way to bypass the windows validation on the windows update page? spending $150 for an OS is too much for me. what? get keygens??!?
 
i believe it only validates when you try to download certain programs like that microsoft beta virus thingy... but update should be fine.. BUT ur better safe than sorry.. just buy it..
 
you're having that problem cuz you're using a pirated copy of windows. however there is a way to disable it....
 
i had a fake copy of xp so i change to linuxs if cost me nothing and i glad no more virus or spyware
 
There is a way, but i don't think it's legal to post it here.

I asked the same thing to a friend since i didn't have my own CD-Key. And i'm running on XP Home now :) But i used the legal way since i don't really like pirating stuff, i jsut got M$ to renew my key over the phone. told them i corrupted my HDD and lost windows, and since it was an OEM key it wouldn't let me re-install. they understood and let me re-activate.

dirgoa, what are you worried about. You said here you used YOUR own LEGIT cd key.

MULTIPUL INSTALLS. i have used the same cd-key on three computers. i need to up date the two fresh installs i did. also i dont know if the guy i bought the cd from has already validated the cd-key.

thats the thing. yes and no.

i said i got a corrupted HDD and i lost my copy of Windows. TOTALLY TRUE!

BUT, what they DON'T ask is what kills them, they DID NOT ask me if the copy of Windows i lost was the same on that i was now trying to install. Of course, the copy i lost was NOT the same one i was using now...this one was borrowed from a friend.

they ASSUMED since i lost windows on my HDD, now i was trying to install the SAME one again. not true.

they agreed, and they assumed...totally there fault. if they would have asked me if the 2 copies were the same..i would have been screwed because i wouldn't have lied.

the good thing is : they are required to read from little plastic cards that say the proper steps in order to help the customer out. like, "please wait while i look up your activation number" they can't stray from those assigned lines. kind of like a pizza hut you have a little diddy you say when u pick up the phone for a pizza order. so they will never ask you that question unless you are transferred to someone who has the authority to actually ask u REAL questions lol.
