Windows XP Registration question.

[elkinm]

I know that Win XP has a bug, and I choose to call it that, in that you have to reregister every time you do a serious hardware change, a max of two items changed. So a swap of one to another is out of the question. And you can reregister only 9 times after which you must contanct Microsoft for a new registration pasword.

Basicly I need to know if there is anyway to remove this form the retail vertions? I have heard of virus hacks that remove it but they are viruses and I am not to thrilled about using them. Or does anybody know were I can get my hands on the corprate version?
I play with hardware alot and I alway add and remove something new and I can break the 9 time limit within an hour on the right day so ths is very unecceptable for me and I would like some help.

Also, the XPs that I have seen have the title bars and windows organized around the new windows media player and media style vew and I wold like to know if it can be changed to look and feel like the basic windows ME or 2000 versions. And does Win XP have Mindows Media Player 6.4 like Win ME as it is much better for divx files and fast general use without all the gragical interfase.

Thanks

You know I have this same problem. I am waiting for the release of XP and I WILL buy it, but my problem is I change things quit often and do not want to go through the hassle of reregistering every time I do so. Now I do not like the fact that I MUST register a product just to use it but I am more than prepared to do so as long as I do not have to reregister it.

This is just my rant.

Yes, XP has WMP 6.4. It's located in /Program Files/Windows Media Player/mplayer2.exe
