Instead of burning a copy of the CD (Software Piracy) why not purchase a copy for yourself? :(

Re: How to burn a Window Xp cd

Even if you did this, it wouldn't work because XP has to activated, and can only be activated on one computer (unless you purchase a license for multiple PC's).

Besides that, it's against forum rules to assist with pirated software

Sorry to hear about your father :(

Re: How to burn a Window Xp cd

in that case the store deals in pirated software and is breaking the law (not surprising as many especially smaller stores do just that).
He probably installed a pirated cracked copy with the activation system disabled.

Be glad your machine no longer works as it now gives you an incentive to get legal software.

and no, we're not going to help you break the law.

I'm also sorry to hear about the loss of your father, but software piracy just pisses me off. I'm forced to pay for multiple licenses for anything I install on any of my clients computers and IMHO everyone else should have to do the same.
