    Default activated xp logs me off

    Wonder if anyone can help.

    I installed win xp home sp2 on my mums pc and used a activation crack.
    now when she logs on its asking her to activate, so she clicks yes and it says she is already activated and proceeds to log her off.

    Even if no is picked it does the same.

    Anyone got any ideas on how to get around it? I've tried to log on has administrator but it tells me there is an account restriction.

    Default Re: activated xp logs me off

    To cut a very, very long story short, I fixed this problem using Hiren's mini XP to boot the PC up, and then searched the C drive for Winlogon.exe. Found 3. Used one to overwrite the one in Windows\System32
    Rebooted, works fine.

    A little late for this thread, but hopefully will help someone else later

    Woo Hooo, 1st bit of useful info I've been able to contribute.
