IBM Thinkpad XP License Key
« on: June 08, 2007, 12:36:50 PM »
I've got a T41 on which I want to reinstall XP. I have tried using an XP Pro CD with the XP Pro CD Key on the sticker on the back of the laptop, but I get an error that the key is not valid. Anyone have any idea what version I need to use to get this to work?

The problem is not activation, it's actually getting the installer to accept the key. Anyway, I phoned IBM and they said that the key is only valid for their rebuild disc. They are sending me one, free!
