Changing Product Code 1

[pritska]

I installed a corporate version as an urgent solution, and now have a licenced upgrade copy.

How do I change the product ID Code so that my XP installation is licenced?

Do I have to reinstall windows 9x or 2K and then upgrade using the upgrade disc I have bought?

take a look at the following link: it tells you how to change your product id.

Hi,

This way is totally more secure for users which may find it hard or doesnt want to risk making a major mistake which might make windows crash and where you need to reinstall it...

The legitimate copy I have is "XP Professional Upgrade"
I am not sure whether the aboves solutions will work. Will try them and inform.

Thanks a lot.
