He recibido este mail y parece que va en serio:
NI SE OS OCURRA INSTALAR el Service Pack 1 para Windows XP
Tampoco tengais puesto el auto update o lo hara solo!!!!!!!!!
En resumen, que si metes el Service Pack 1 y le metes elnumero de serie de tu XP como ese nº estara en la lista de nºs piratas no te lo aceptara y te bloqueara el winXP, y si por el conttrario metes un numero distinto, al compararlos tb lo bloqueara.
Leed:
Microsoft has introduced its Windows XP Service Pack 1 which, according to Microsoft’s documentation, is “aimed at ensuring licensed customers receive full benefits… product updates and Access to Windows XP Updates.” What Microsoft XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) is really designed to do is “to make it more difficult for those who pirate software to steal these same benefits.”
A summary of SP1’s changes from Service Packs of the past includes:
(1) When XP SP1 installation is attempted, SP1 will not load with previous “well known” pirated product keys, and will further verify the product key against a current product key list
(2) Once a hardware change is made to a PC that requires re-activation of Windows XP, licensed users will have a grace period of 3 days (previously required immediately) to re-activate Windows XP
(3) SP1 includes a Volume License Key (VLK) encryption that is added to unattended setups of Windows XP
(4) A product key used to install Windows XP will become part of the Installation ID for all future activations after SP1
(5) The entire product key will be sent upon Internet log in/activation, while a hash value of the product key will be sent upon telephone installation
(6) “Fixes” to software piracy cracks will be embedded in SP1 to prohibit SP1 activation
(7) Installations of Windows XP that have been repaired/patched by a crack must be completely reactivated upon SP1 installation.
En resumen, que si metes el Service Pack 1 y le metes elnumero de serie de tu XP como ese nº estara en la lista de nºs piratas no te lo aceptara y te bloqueara el winXP, y si por el conttrario metes un numero distinto, al compararlos tb lo bloqueara.
La unica solucion seria reinstalar winxp con un nuevo numero que si sea aceptado por el Service Pack 1 (hoy por hay no hay ninguno)
Asin que no os lo instaleis...
