How do I Get rid of the Activate XP thing?
But my Windows XP Pro I have, claims that the activation has been used too many times, and I need to purchase a additional Product key. I own this copy, it came with my PC, and I need this solved quickly. Is there a way I can remove the Activation thing to prevent it from halting my windows after 30 days? Thanks.

yeah, i tried the crack thing too... no good.
i got a legal copy from school (Microsoft academic alliance) and i use it on a computer that isn't very stable. so after numerous reinstalls i have to go though this process every time... done it three times so far all with success.

If i remember right you just need to set the bios date to 50yrs in the future. But they may have fixed that in one of the SP'*. 
Theres also an INI file you can modify so that it installs without ever asking for the key but you may get burned with that when WGA kicks in.
