Are you using the restore CDs that came with the Dell machine, or did you buy a new copy of XP? -- Gene Cronk ISSAP CISSP IAM Systems Administrator -- The Robin Shepherd Group http://www.trsg.net Office: 904-359-0981x36 Cell: 386-795-3081 Jason T. Hallahan wrote:
Hello and good day, I recently purchased a laptop from Dell with Win XP Professional on it for the purpose of setting up a VMWare virtual network for honeypot/pen-testing purposes. However, when I go to install my new copy of XP (which is the host OS of my box) in a virtual machine, it won't activate. I tried calling Microsoft and going through the automated process on the phone, but it says my installation is invalid. Is there any way around this (I am not trying to cheat Microsoft here) or any way to speak to a Microsoft representation to explain my situation? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and best regards! - Jason
