validation
when i bought my pc from currys it was a refurbished one. after i had gone through setting it up and calling it a name, setting up my internet connection a box came up saying i had to registar or validate my xp copy which went fine.
after buying my son a brand new advent laptop 2 weeks ago, going through the same setup stages and conecting to the internet i have never been asked or can find anything to validate or registar his copy of xp!! is this right? dosent sound good to me, although windows has been downloading updates, about 70 i think and im sure one of those was that genuine advantage tool. nothings ever come up about validating or illegal copy, is there a way i can check? or after a couple of weeks do you think i wont recieve anymore updates? thanks from jane
