Windows XP Activation
Have you ever installed an XP installation using a ‘Royal’ installation disk and then wondered what your activation status is? Start/Run this command ‘oobe/msoobe /a’. This will bring up the activation window and let you know.
Now say you just bought some new hardware and want to integrate it into your system. How do you know when you’ll trip the activation switch? Try XPInfo or a program like it.
