Furthermore, I ask about the 'Corporate Key', they say they have no knowledge about it. The closest thing they can come up with is product key which brings no solution to my problem.

Anyone have any idea to solve this problem?

Its a corporate license, not a corporate key.

No, because you are not a corporate user and you haven't got a corpoarate cd key, and it wouldn't matter if you did, the same rules apply to a corporate CD key as any other.

This is a problem with XP and it is not a problem at all with W2K pro. I had multiboot in W2K in my MCSE class and transfered the removable HDD between two classes and my home PC.

Can you change to W2K OS to accomplish what you need?

It's crap like this that MS puts out that makes people want to hack their software. Makes them feel like they are getting back at MS. They can't do it any other way. Can you blame them, I can't.

OK, i guess the last option for me is to install a dual boot. USE XP in the office and use Windows 2000 at home.

Good idea?

Dual boot works. Sorry, thats the only legit way I know of.
