Windows XP Dell OEM Activation

[sUrGi0]

I DLed (exact copy/paste) XP install file called: 'winxpdell'. Under 'My Computer' properties it says "Microsoft Windows XP, Profesional, Version 2002". Every time I start XP it states I have a certain amount of days to "activate windows". Ive tried several keys I found on IRC's nitro.net #xp and neither worked. My question is how do I get this extremely nice OS to "activate"? Any and ALL help is appreciated.

you are kidding right?

If you do not have a legit copy of XP, asking how to make a warez version work is a no no here.

The mods will make your membership very short lived here if you ask questions like this.
