Impossible to "Activate Windows" - link broken or damaged, only to see a blue window with 2 Gifs in the upper corners.

Hello

I recently reinstalled XP Home after accident after the installation of SP3. I tried the clean install, no problems until the end of the 30-day activation period; to be honest didn't know that I needed too, but that's another story.

After management reset the counter of 30 days, finally reconnected to XP, went through the SP3 update process ok, reboot ok, then tried Windows Update - re not headed to activation options... no problem, I have all the original disks, here's the problem though.

I have to go through , then choose "Activate Windows" then...

pop-up windows opens, blue background with title bar gray where it says activate Windows, but there is no option menu on screen? all I get are two. In each upper corner gif images (tells usually unloaded image on a web page)... and that's it, nadda, nothing else rises.

I tried all the solutions on the Win Help pages (kb314935) and some other techy here guys (topics: Windows XP Home Activation window fails to run a repair... and the Article ID: 312295)

I tried all of the following commands in the order...

Regsvr32.exe regwizc.dll
Regsvr32.exe licdll.dll
C:\Windows\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /A

I ran across the "fix" WPAEvents, which does not work either...

I rang the activation help desk United Kingdom who advised it wasn't their problem because I wasn't getting the option to activate by phone, so they gave me the number of the UK tech support... and of course they do not work beyond 18:00 or weekend (grrr) so I rang the support American number and after 10 minutes of blocking and accumulating of my phone bill they say "we support only from the USA and Canada, team support to try to the United Kingdom"... aaaaahhhhhhh

So what someone has any ideas that don't involve repair XP as I did this one to death.

See you soon,.

I had this same problem. Tried to repair windows xp with a slipstream sp3 and still no success. I found solutions by creating a new fake profile that created a new record for this user, and the correct activation window came and was successfully able to activate it.

    Hello

    I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.

    If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...

    1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.

    2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA

    3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html

    After the back if your BIOS is IDE / ATA

  • Is impossible to activate Windows XP, computer locked up...

    I tried all day removing personal information from my old computer before I give it to a friend. At the time when I thought that I had done, I decided to do an upgrade of the Windows XP operating system installation. I thought that I would be fixing any errors. Stupid me! I made the mistake that I can't seem to overcome. Now, the computer does not start until a complete departure. I get a window that says "Windows Product Activation: this copy of Windows must be activated with Microsoft you connect." You want to activate Windows now? "I answer by clicking Yes.

    Then the screen turns green in background Windows XP and State does not change the count after that. It just seems to be locked up. I cut the power supply and start hoping that it will be somehow milraculously change States and work this time... but no! Same thing again and again.

    You should use the recovery partition to reinstall.

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    The key you used will probably do not work, try the following:

    Click Start, right click on computer

    Click on properties
