    Re: validating a cracked version of xp

    If your worried about them coming knocking on your door I wouldnt worry, if you have done it and it works then fair play but I wouldnt worry the worst that would happen is that you will download some annoying thing from them that shows up on your computer that says its not a legit copy and that can be removed.

    Lol, just run the validation found in ETHO folder on XP disc & it will be fine, if you get a message saying its not genuine windows just get the latest validation software & run it, you have to be in safe mode to do this though, good luck.

    The way I used to do it would be to pick the downloads you want to install then when it gives you the list of downloads I think there is only 1 mabey 2 that you dont want, wga advantage you definatly dont want so click do not download and then click dont remind me about this update again and it should stop asking you to download it for a while, cant remember what the other one was or even if there was another 1 Hidden Content .
