| Re: Win xp ilegal copy notice i think he might be talking about this  There has been cases where WGA has been wrong, if thats he case, call Microsoft and explain, run activate again and it will be fixed.

I'd guess that Windows should be activated again... If it is a legitimate copy this should be no problem and the error should be gone soon...if it is an illegal copy....he should buy a legal version...
