SLP String and Windows XP activation on a fresh install

Post by Jeff_59 »

Hello everybody :D

Although i added an SLP string in vitualbox bios, does anyone know why i'm unable to preactivate a fresh install of windows XP in virtualbox using a Multi OEM installation dvd? Indeed, i managed to install and preactivate windows XP on a "real" OEM PC using this dvd (so the dvd seems to do the job), and moreover, an existing XP system (running on a "real" OEM PC) that i converted into a virtual disk image has been successfully activated in virtualbox with this SLP string that i added in the virtual bios (so the string in the bios should be enough for activation).

Thanks in advance for the help :mrgreen:

Jeff,

We don't discuss use of software that needs to have the license usurped.

If you install software and want to be legal buy the license.
