Official Service Pack 1 for download at Microsoft.

Sauce of chaos · Sep 6, 2002, 06:14 AM

I'm curious. At the end of the eula, this is written,

EULAID:WX.4_PRO_RTL_EN

Could someone let me know what "WX.4_PRO_RTL_EN" stands for?

Thx.

I right clicked on it, clicked save as and hit okay and its downloading at 8 kb a sec.

PLZ dont download this if you got 1106 already, I tested them both by a program that compiles and compares the 2 files and they are the same. Nothing diffrent, file size, dates, types all everything is same, so why wast time downloading and holding up others.

Mod request,
How about setting this post at the start of this thread ?
I usually read the entire thread before starting a download,
but some don't. Save them some time/bandwidth to know
that 1106 is the same file.

I'd like to know a way to aviod the 180 day timebomb
without a format, if possible. I'd like to keep 1106
and avoid MS as much as possible.

I got about 27K average off it. You would think a Microsoft server would be faster. But I bet it's getting hammered pretty heavy!! I'm also on cable - have a 3000kpbs down cap. Get about 3100 to 3200kpbs on speed test on a good day.

1106 has no 180day timebomb. Unless you installed over a beta.
If you did all you have to do is boot to cd and choose repair.

Anyone able to tell what this means?

EULAID:WX.4_PRO_RTL_EN

Specifically the RTL_EN section.

It was located at the bottom of the eula in the sp1 1106 I downloaded.

seems something like Windows XP Pro Retail English or something. not sure what 4 is 4.

maybe versoion number of the EULA. :P

jnjn · Sep 6, 2002, 02:35 PM

i've tested it.
no "for testing purpose only"
no "180 day lisence EULA"
no "v.1106" after "Service Pack 1"

and VLK CAN be used to install the SP1(1106) slipstreamed corp version xp installation files (i burned it onto an cd-r)!

OK, thanks.
Yes i installed it over the previous one.
Been installing them on a regular basis

I assume I'll need to reinstall 1106 (?).

Well thanks, I can see that for myself, I
assume I will need to install 1106 again.

Great info. Got to admit though I'm confused about something. Where or how do I view the actual eula that came with sp1 1106 that I downloaded. I thought I was looking at it but based on the recent posts on the subject I may have been looking in the wrong place.

I can find the location of the file.....sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

edit: Is there an eula for the sp1 1106??

Question:

As a computer novice I did something that I feel might be stupid. After reading everything on the forum (i got daring) I deleted the eula text with the 180 day limit from c:\windows\system32 directory and re-copied the original eula text from the original winxp pro cd and pasted it back in the c:\windows\system32 directory. Did I get rid of the 180 day limit by doing this?

-={420}=- · Sep 6, 2002, 08:28 PM

Deleting text in the EULA does not change the actual 180 day limit because that is encoded in the Windows files once you install the service pack.

Well first you need to uninstall any beta sp you have and/or boot to cd and choose repair.
That is if you don't want to reformat.
But if you do boot to cd and repair, I believe it does a search for a previous windows install and then asks if you wish to repair that install or do a new install.

Yes, second installation repair screen on a CD boot.
All done. XP deletes the sp1 files (1106)
and returns to the orginal CD files.
Reinstalled 1106, and that gave a non 180day EULA.
All set

So how do I change my registration key without re-installing? I apologise if this question has been answered before, but I am new here and have a key that is apparently not liked by the SP.

Shaith · Sep 7, 2002, 04:50 PM

Simply enter a legit key from a legit copy and your worries will be ended.

mr pinky · Sep 7, 2002, 05:38 PM

a "xp key changer" thingy is meant to help, if you hate re-installing.

Shaith is right

But if you dwell in the zone where Mr. Burns, umm Bill Gates has way to much money as it is

sounds like your either using FCKGW-xxxxxx key
or a resealing package

both wont work, as you will see on earlier posts

As far as not reinstalling, maybe Mr. Pinky can help

I cant, I will not install SP over an existing install, I'm running clean
Thanks again David

If you want to reinstall, run keygen if you have one searching for Corp keys 100 for results
might take a while be patient

I got 3, and they all work

BACKUP FIRST

Boot using a copy of ME or something, run Fdisk /MBR to clean boot records
format Fat 32, XP defaults to other format

Boot your XP CD, dont enter FCKGW-xxxxxx key, enter one of the keys generated before you reformatted. No resealing package, roast it, its crap

enter key, Run SP1

then reinstall your software

hope I helped, Im new round here too
Watch for post's from David though, he's a sharp one
