    I have gone through many posts in this matter and the more I learn more is my confusion. Hence I request some guidance from you good people.
    I want to install XP Pro Sp3 in my new harddisk. I have downloaded 2 versions. Eng.OEM and VL. I also downloaded Antiwat 3.5.1. I also have the key. All thanks to MDL. But going through the recent posts I understand that there is a little bit of hesitancy in using Antiwat.
    My first query is which one should I install? OEM or VL? Second query is how do I make my installation genuine? I do not want to use Oembios Changer. If I have to use Antiwat, do I have to except it in my avs when I install the avs?
    Please advise.
    Thanks.":confused:"

    Thanks. I have read posts by Urie and 911. But I don't want to modify my motherboard because I have another hard disk with win7 running. Now I am scared to use Antiwat. Best, I think I will forget about Xp and install 7 on the disk. No stress-right?
    Thanks again for your valuable inputs.

    The slp string has NOTHING to do with Windows 7..that has also been made clear.
