He found this site: http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/0...livingston.html Software pirates, therefore, need only configure a PC as "dockable" (a simple matter), switch off the serial number of the CPU, and alter the serial number of the boot drive. Pirates can then create thousands of working PCs using a single Wpa.dbl file. The counterfeiters can build PCs that vary as many as three of the following components: CPU, RAM amount, network adapter, boot drive, and CD/DVD drive. As far as WPA is concerned, no reactivation is needed And this German site (WTF?) which goes into more detail: http://www.tecchannel.de/client/windows/401701/index2.html Has anybody tried using the same install CD and product key for two computers before? This friend of a friend has tried what the German article described, but can't seem to get it to work. Also of note, this friend of a friend's dad is a cheapass who refuses to buy another copy of Windows XP Pro SP-2. |
