I installed a downloaded WinXP Pro corp. edition.
I'm wondering if there's any way for me to download updates for windows via "Windows Update" or the Microsoft website without it being detected as not legit.

Thanks for any help.

Yea, I'm trying to avoid that.
I read about this WGA crack thing. And I got one and I installed it, but it didnt work.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Is there some kind of process to this?

I think you have to own first a Copy of Windows to buy an xtra Serial Key...
So in the end your paying for 2...

I just wanted to buy a Serial for Vista but you cant... Sad...
You have to own a Copy first and then buy another Serial for the same price as the Boxed Version...What a joke...

There's another trick... I will not post the required files for it, NOR WILL I SEND THEM TO YOU IN PM, but I'll describe it here: There's a reg file circulating the net, that when executed replaces temporarely the license with a valid one (it's still valid for now, I guess MS are not really interested in XP anymore). After a restart you get the old non-wga license, though, so keep the reg file. Google is you friend, that's how I found it.
