| wga validation tool Hello! I bought a system(compaq deskpro en) with xp pro installed. The wga tool says that my os may not be valid. All indications are that it is(vendor and displayed files). I downloaded and installed the 'tool' (kb892130) in order to be sure of ms support for my system. Now I cannot install it. Help! Please! |

| RE: wga validation tool The Compaq deskpro is an older model of compaq that came either with Windows 98/Me/2000 installed on it. If you have a COA product key sticker on the side of it you will see the version of windows installed originally on the computer. Odds are that whomever you bought this from used a fraudulent copy of XP Professional the most common. Go Here to validate. http://www.microsoft.com/resources/h...s/default.mspx You may be forced to buy a legit copy. Carey will be able to give you that link as I do not have it. Good luck, Joe Kemco ITT "itnute@oops.com" wrote: > Hello! I bought a system(compaq deskpro en) with xp pro installed. The wga > tool says that my os may not be valid.
