Solve : Windows 98SE CD Key? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Now i'm curious, which Windows started having unique product keys? Me, 2000?XPNone.Most <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/programs-239435" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROGRAMS">PROGRAMS</a> don't have unique product keys either.The unique keys are so that the computer can be identified, not the disk the software came on.

Once you activate a PC with that Key, however, it becomes somewhat tied to the hardware (mostly the network cards MAC address and other <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/tidbits-7718908" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TIDBITS">TIDBITS</a> from the other components). So of course it would be this "<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/activation-848050" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ACTIVATION">ACTIVATION</a> number" that is unique to each PC. One can legally install XP on one machine, activate it, format that drive and install it to another computer; however <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/depending-2572220" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DEPENDING">DEPENDING</a> on the scenario activation might not work without a phone call; basically it "reassociates" the product key with the new machine.</body></html> | |
