What are these bios strings? How can I find them ? It is possible to use them in VMware Player running in Windows Vista or XP?
That works only in Windows 7. It does not work in Other operating systems.(Ubuntu) It says the system is not allowed to run Virtual XP. I want to find a way of activating XP mode In Vmware installed in Ubuntu.
make your mind up first Windows Vista or XP now Ubuntu the oembios changer tool from stickies only work on windows systems.
This will activate XP Mode VM or any XP install anywhere. I just activated the XP Mode VM intended for Virtual Server on Win 7 Pro, but I did it on Vista Home with VirtualPC after extracting the vhd. This just works. Run regedit Click down to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents Modify OOBETimer to be FF D5 71 D6 8B 6A 8D 6F D5 33 93 FD then click OK Right Click on folder WPAEvents and choose Permissions Click on 'System' and check Deny Full Control You will get a warning that deny is more powerful than allow. Click OK. You are done. Windows is activated and will pass the Genuine Advantage test so you can use Windows Update. Start>Run>\oobe\msoobe /a if you doubt me.
This does not work. Even though msoobe /a shows Windows is Activated,after 30 days,I get message saying "This copy of Windows must be activated with Microsoft before you can logon.Do you want to activate Windows now?" When I click yes msoobe /a is executed which says Windows is already activated. When i click ok i am taken back to the login screen and when I try to login i get the first message.it is an endless loop.
How do I mod VirtualBox files in Linux? Editing the xml file with the SLP string is not at all helping.
