Is it the Windows XP keyword? or Serial, CD key generator?

Posted on September 6, 2009 by | 2 Comments

Last week I blogged about how I was able to find out how to get the CD Key for Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). And my blog got hits 200% more than the average visit I get

So it got me thinking. Is Windows XP still the most widely used OS? Or is it the keywords “serial”, “cd key generator” that got them into my blog?

I have a Macbook Pro that is running Tiger OSX now. Yep, not even Leopard, but I did upgrade it to Leopard before. Not even Snow. In the office I use a PC. An Acer PC also downgraded, into a Windows XP OS. It came, along with 10 or so other PCs here, with Vista OS but we all downgraded them. Hopefully yo solve our problems.

Anyway. So is the Windows XP still the best OS out there? For the average, user perhaps?

That is subject to whatever is defined as an “average user”.
:)

But yeah I already found out how I got the blog hits! It is not the choice of keywords. It was the link :)

Find your Windows XP CD Key!

Posted on August 31, 2009 by | 8 Comments

A friend of mine asked me to install Windows XP on her Vista-ready Toshiba laptop.

At first I encountered a couple of Blue Screens. However I was already able to fix it, by removing the SATA thingies. I will discuss later.

OK so I was in the part where I needed to put in the CD Key. Apparently the key that was written on the Windows XP CD that I was using was not correct!

I tried searching on the web, some keys, but it was not useful. Like the Magic Jelly Bean Key finder. I say it is not useful, coz I did not install it! lol :)

There were also some keyfinders which proved to be useful only on finding the keys on installed OS.

SO how did I find the key? Fortunately it is written only on a text file on the CD itself.

Look for “unattend.txt”. And OPEN it. The key should be there on the last part!

Happy Hunting! I only tried it on a Win XP SP2 cd. SO it may not work on other installation discs. :)
