Last days i manage to put my hand on 2 original OEM key for Win XP PRO. I went very happy home and wanted to install win using those keys. Guess what ... INVALID KEY. I couldn't belive my eyes as i was sure i copied them well from original licenses. So now comes a question ... posible only some builds of xp to accept those keys ? Or ...

Some rumor is said that m$ will relieve the restriction of using pirated VLK in sp2. But now I have known it is not true.

I usually get a VLK key from a public PC with WinXP-Key Viewer.
