    Thanks for the great compilation of resources. I'm looking for some legit resources on where to get a Windows XP and how to make it genuine. I'm also looking for tutorials on how to create a CD/DVD.

    The only real genuine way other than having a Retail or OEM NONE:SLP is OEM:SLP activation start reading the stickies.

    You need to integrate SATA drivers.

    hey
    I've downloaded this en_win_xp_pro_with_sp2_vl
    here is checksums:
    MD5 Checksum: 743450644B1D9FE97B3CF379E22DCEB0
    SHA-1 Checksum: F85ACA2FF6807647D5DA6E0F6A3DCFD3CBBC617B
    SHA-256 Checksum: E998BF8233E012F35A0D2BBD78C0E8A2EE6B4ADAFA1A49C7F0230182049D2E45
    Generated by MD5 & SHA Checksum Utility

    is that untouched & original ?

    Yep, that does happen. Only once for me, luckily, but still, at that time I never heard about blacklisting XP VL keys, so it was quite a shock (also for all the people who's systems I "fixed" for them!!). Since then, I did find a little tool to provide me with autogenerated new keys (I don't want to use the word, no need to feed Google), and that seems to work OK.
