i get 3 chances to make changes? I never activated at all so hopefully since this is my first time they will be cool.

the moment of truth of whether i get to play with my 7800gt comes down to whether microsoft believes me or not.

if not then i gotta wait to buy a new oem license......

how limited is windows for the 30 days till you activate?

can i still even get on the internet and install stuff?
 
You will only notice by the icon and popup. Otherwise it is not hindered in any way.

I heard of users getting less than the full 30 days. Though I have no way of verifying it. I just wanted to give a warning it could happen.

I guess since it resets the config everytime is why I am still cool. As I mentioned prior, my upgrades have been spread over many months. I was going by the "3 parts", from the initial release of XP. There was a lot of debate on the activation and how it worked. Some parts must of it slipped my mind. :shrug:
