The same guy that had the problem with the memory gave me an old Dell Dimension 4100. It has Windows XP Home installed but he never activated it, not sure why. He does not have the cd for it or if he does, he has it installed on a different computer. Right now I can not do anything on it because the activation screens keeps coming up and if I don't activate it, it logs me off.
I have a Windows XP Pro cd that is not being used so I thought I maybe try to upgrade it without having to reinstall it. Well when it tries to boot from the cd, it says could not find NTLDR. Does Windows have to be activated before I can do anything else?
Am I going to have to call Microsoft and get a number from them And I guess they will charge full price too right?
