Shroodoo.co.uk will be offline due to windows being messed up.
I changes my cd-rom dirves round, switched on and it said "Windows hardware set-up has significantley changed since you first activated windows, please reactivate in 3 days" So in 3 days my server will be "naffed up". I tried activating but it said "You have reached the max activation attempts for this version"
So i have had to order a new version XP Home with COA fir £60 off ebuyer. Which is comming Tuesday, Because of this, my server is as from offline. Untill after december.
Thanks all for your support,
Craig Sansam. ;(

| I would suggest phoning microsoft support to request a new serial number. I had the same problem with my machine, and after I explained what happened they were happy to supply me with a new serial. |

Why dont you do what millions of other people do and just find a code on the internet? I know a good few people that have done that. Why pay £60 for something you can get for free ;-)

I dunno but I bet it is. CMX said that even logging on to IRC is probably breaking about 3 laws...

The only reason i am buying a LEGIT CD with COA UN-USED, is because i think it is safer :D to have a legit version on my webserver.
And anyways, the current version is not legal, as it is registered using the same COA as my Laptop, which i no longer have ;-(

I suggest you stop posting your web address frequently. If you are going to do this put it in your signature, then it doesnt look like spam :-)
I have to say, Billy Gates makes too much money anyway, and his OS sucks, but I only use it because there is actually software out there for it, unlike Linux which doesnt exactly have an abundance of software for it.
