3:- Close the file and go to Desktop and double click on the file you just saved. Run the file.
4:- Your Windows XP is now genuine. Restart your windows and that’s it.
Second Method
If you are not lucky and the above method is not working for you then don’t worry you can try this one.
1. Download this file
2. Extract it and Run the file.
3. Now go to genuine microsoft software and click on the button “Validate Windows”
4. Done
3rd Method
Even if the above two methods are also not working for you, then try this one.
1. Click on “Start>Run” and enter regedit.
2. Navigate to the following location.
LOCAL-MACHINE-SOFTWARE-Microsoft-Window’s NT-Current Version-WPAEvents
3. Now click on “OOBE Timer” located at right side of the box. Delete all the values and close Regedit.
4. Now click on “Start>Run” and type the following and hit enter.
%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a
5. One the next page select “Use Phone to Activate” and click on “Change Product Key”. A box will be shown where you need to enter the following Product Key.

Liked this tutorial.. need to give it a try..
don’t work for me
Asad@ Did you paste the exact code in notepad.
yes and it entered in the registry successfully after validation it says
This copy of Windows did not pass genuine validation.
The product key found on this computer is not valid for use in your region.
same problm, with me
i also paste the same code on notepad bt it is not saved with the name of genuine.reg.it saved just as genuine.
you may b a victim of software conterfaiting.
This copy of Windows did not pass Genuine validation.
what should i do?
Dear, change the file extension from (.txt) to .reg
you can do this by Command Prompt or you can do this within windows. if you know how to show “known files extensions”
OR
you can save file at c:\ (root location of primary drive.) once done then run “CMD” command
your will be at “C:\Documents and Settings\[your profile/login name]>” with black windows
execute following commands:
1: cd \
2: ren genuine.txt genuine.reg
3: exit
You are done here. Open “my computer” and browse to the c:\ now you will see the same file turns into Reg file appears in green cube blocks. now hit it and you will make your windows XP genuine
Cheers
Ohh let me check this again, but it worked fine for me.
it doesn’t work for me T_T.. “registry editing has been disabled by your administrator”
Furstrated@ Which version of window XP you are using. Is it SP1 or SP2?
It works but after I restart my comp it’s back to being ungenuine.
I need to install Service Pack 3. After it installs, windows restarts and needs to be verified before it lets you use the computer.
Is there any way to keep windows genuine after you restart your computer?
same issue happen to me also
“yes and it entered in the registry successfully after validation it says
This copy of Windows did not pass genuine validation.
The product key found on this computer is not valid for use in your region.”

Plz help me to make “windows 7 build 7600″ genune.
hi, the first way help me. thank you very much
i bought an asus netbook off craigslist with windows pro xp engineered to tiny xp … no problem for a good 18 months 2 years until i, at the suggestion of our office’s i/t person, since i was running out of space, transferred my virus program from avast to the msn security system — which is when the black pirate screen &c began to appear. our i/t guy put in some magic code to make my tiny xp pass tests — which indeed it did.
however, after i transferred some programs to a card, got rid of the truncated office program (only 4 gig on the virtual harddisk) to create some room, the updates on the windows xp totally flooded my tiny excuse for a hard drive and used it all up … rendering my little asus virtually unusable
my question — is msn deliberately flooding xp programs w/updates since they are outphasing them now?
@ Shahbaz viruses causes your error. I had it once, forgot how to fix it lol
I had the problem with Windows Media Player.
And both way works and thankz a million man
The 2nd step is the same as first step. Just with us doing no work. lol
Add op to the post that restart is required otherwise this will not work.
Cheers.

thanks dude it works for me
Thank you very much for the help. I had issues at first with the validation after restarting my computer, but followed DA’s advice went to the registry editor and denied access to the SYSTEM user.
To do this, I followed the following procedure:
1.) Start->Run->typed “regedit” and clicked OK.
2.) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE-> Microsoft-> Windows NT-> WPAEvents
3.) Right click on WPAEvents-> Permissions…-> SYSTEM-> Click ‘Deny’ under ‘Full Control’
Hi, It worked for me, but validation fails stating the different region / country as reason.
Which region country are you guys in for whom this worked.
any idea who to deal this.
thank you so much the second solved it
worked for me, I have Windows XP
it’s work thanks dude but now i faced another problem is how we show that our xp became genuine just guide me how we check it out that i m waiting and once more time thank dude
Guys nothing needs to be done to avoid the notifications.
Only do the following-
Launch RegEdit in run command.
Browse to the following location-
Hkey-local-machine\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Current version\Winglogon\Notify
now delete d folder ‘Wgalogon’and all its content
now restart ur computer and its done
Enjoy.

My problem is unique, I am not able to access my PC. Every time I select “Resolve now” or Resolve Later”, it comes back to same screen. I lived with the annoying popup for couple of months but now I am not able to access my PC
follow the below steps to make windows XP genuine.
1) start > run > “regedit” (without the quotes of course)
2) go to the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\… NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents\OOBETimer
…and doubleclick on it. Then change some of the value data to ANYTHING ELSE…delete some, add some letters, I don’t care…just change it!
now close out regedit.
3) go to start > run > “%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a” (again, dont type the quotes)
4) the activation screen will come up, click on register over telephone, then click on CHANGE PRODUCT KEY, enter in this key: JG28K-H9Q7X-BH6W4-3PDCQ-6XBFJ.
if I will run the regedit, it will say:
registry edit has been disabled by administrator
how is that?
now ur WINDOW ACTIVE 100%
my windows is activate please help me…..
I’m new here on, but I find it interesting and educational. Thx
Hi, very helpful keep on…..
