the 120 day winxp reset December 29, 2004, 02:46:29 AM Anyone ever "test" this rumor to see if it works? The fiance has xp home and I'm building a new system. Might try it out and see what happens... Quote Selected
Re: the 120 day winxp reset Reply #1 – December 29, 2004, 02:54:02 AM I heard that it was only 30 days.... I dont think that it matters too much, I have heard that as long as it never hits the internet that you are fine. I have also heard that you can just take out the battery on the motherboard or reset your date wrong to get around it. One of my freinds jacked a copy from a store and it died after a month or so. He fixed it by calling up microsoft and telling him that he lost that code and they gave him a generic one Quote Selected

(For the beta Testers)15 Day working without activation = You dont have a Corporate EditionNo Activation needed = Corporate VersionHome Version = Lighter edition.Pro Version= More efficient, More options, Better StabilityMy suggestion is : Use a "SP2 Pro Corporate" version of Windows XP...Why you wanna "test" a 120 day reset anyway :wtf: Quote Selected
