Microsoft Windows XP Professional

**RobC1907** · Posted: Thu Mar 06, 2008 1:20 pm Post subject: Microsoft Windows XP Professional

This is the original genuine version of Windows XP Professional. It includes Service Pack 3. It does not requires any cracks or tools to pass the validation. This is an untouched version of Windows XP Professional.

Follow the instructions precisely. Take each letter as a direct order from God himself, because you do NOT want this to go wrong.

1) Download all the links.

2) With WinRaR extract only the first file. After extraction, you should get only one file.

3) This new file is a Nero image. So first you need to burn it with Alcohol, Nero or ImgBurn onto a blank CD.

4) Then put the CD in the drive.

5) Go to My Computer and open the CD.

6) Open the folder called Oblivion.

7) Open the Oblivion.nfo file to get a genuine serial number. Write it down and restart your PC.

Cool

Boot from CD.

9) Install your fresh copy of Windows XP. Format your PC.

10) Register with the key you wrote down earlier.

11) Put your new Windows XP to good use.

I had not personally heard of Service Pack 3, apparently because microsoft leaves it as an optional update, so for those of you who are confused as to what it is and what it involves. Here's the latest, straight for the big man himself: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=68c48dad-bc34-40be-8d85-6bb4f56f5110&displaylang=en

All I heard was that SP3 is just a bunch of hot-fixes for various things. Not too bothered personally, but thanks.

To have service pack 3 - yes.

If you're talking about putting XP on your computer, all you need is a computer that works, no operatings system required - but odds are, since you run a Vista machine (I've seen screenshots of where you uploaded Pivot) that you're computers graphics card runs Direct X 10. Direct X 10 is not handled by Windows XP - so, thusly, if you buy a laptop that runs vista, you cannot put XP on it - you'll never find an XP-compatible video driver. If you've got a desktop though, and you're running a DX10 card, all you have to do is replace it with an older card (something that can run DX9.0c).

I've put windows to a Double Layered DVD before, along with a huge collection of drivers and quick fix utilities.

It was a great tool for fixing computers that didn't want to boot to windows, quickly and easily. I had data recovery tools on there that would torrent data from their computer across the network to my back-up machine, as well as tools that would recover Windows Keys and Passwords (in case the problem boiled down to piracy or forgotten passwords, etc), and I had every scan and whatnot that I trust with my computer cleaning.

I used it for a nice long while, before someone at a computer repair shop I used to work at stole it from me. ( Sad

)

I think though, that if I were to do this again, I'd put Last XP on a DVD and try to get as many drivers as possible so as to establish a large plug-and-play network. You might want to do the same, but make a careful note to stock up on common motherboard chipset drivers. Most people over-look these, but they're critically important.
