When I turn on my computer it tells me that I need to activate windows. I click on 'YES' it takes me to the activation page and says that Windows is already activated.

Windows XP Activation loop.

When I turn on my computer it tells me that I need to activate windows. I click on 'YES' it takes me to the activation page and says that Windows is already activated. All I can do is, click 'OK' and he takes me into a log on screen with my name on it and goes through the same process, as described at the beginning of this statement. I'm in a loop. The only way out is to wipe my hard drive and reload windows new who, within 30 days, it will do no doubt once again. How to do this?
For 3 years I rebooted my computer. That's why I reloaded it in the first place. I sent this version of Windows XP by Microsoft and have recharged the system at least 4 times in the past 10 or 11 years.

  • I have a problem when I turn on my computer...

    I have a problem when I turn on my computer. An error that says: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "
    And there are 3 options: start windows in safe mode, safe mode with network or start Windows normally. And... If I have the choice between these options my Windows shows this option again and again after loading... How to solve "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. " Problem ?

    lakimedo,
    The first thing, have you changed any hardware or software?   If you added new hardware then delete and restart.  Also disconnect external devices and try to start.  When you start start pressing F8 until you get the Windows startup options.  Then try "Last known good configuration" see if that helps.  If those who do not help, I would start with your XP CD to recovery mode and run "chkdsk/r" then "sfc/scannow".  QQ learn manage!

    An application installed on the computer may be the cause of this problem; I suggest you try the following steps:

    Method 1: Put the computer to boot to determine which application is causing the problem.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.
