does anyone know what happins if you dont register xp
You dont have to register, you have to 'activate' XP... registration is optional. If you fail to activate, then your copy of the OS will simply stop working until you do activate it.
 
Well...it just can't be activated on more then once PC at the same time. However, you can reformat your PC hourly and activate it without any problem..

However, you can't just take the HD out of the machine and put it into a new machine...or even upgrade certain parts without it ceasing to work. Very frustrating..and didn't reduce piracy anyways
