Hey guys,

I have been trying for ages now to get Windows XP Pro in danish on a machine at my work.

So far nothing has worked, so i finaly download a cracked copy of Windows XP Pro SP2 in danish, and then figured once its installed, i will use one of my 3 legal keys.

No matter what i do, it just will not let me change the keys to any of the legal ones, and it knows the one i installed with is illegal!

How on earth do i fix this problem?
 
Install a legal copy. We can't support cracked versions, key changers, or other cracking/warez based discussions here. Sorry.
 
I understand about the hassle of the product keys.

Here's another pitfall:

Even with a 100 percent legit copy of XP, reinstalling more than 6 or 5 times is known to make the Microsoft activation servers P-ed!

My problem is, i need whats known as a retail SP3 cd, which i can only find in english, not in danish, with these you can "skip" the serial and add it once your in windows, therefor useing the legal keys i have.
