Posted July 19, 200519 yr I installed XP Home on my laptop and duly activated it within a couple of days after checking that all the drivers etc were working ok. The past few days I have started receiving the warning notice that XP needs to be activated. The first day, I ignored this, but the past few days with the countdown continuing I decided it would be best to reactivate. I select the activate now option, and am taken to a page where I get the message "this software is already activated". I then tried a manual activation and again got the same message. The question is, in four days time is my software going to cease working, what can I do.
