This no longer works......The Validation rechecks the CD again an online DB of valid CD keys. Also might disable Media Player 11 if you are starting it for the 1st time..... The version of XP 2600 FINAL done but ETH0 has been found to do this....I tried and tried but the fucking validation is a little tougher to get around.
