I could not load Norton Constant Guard. I deleted the Norton files. But was still unable to install the Constant Guard. I was instructed to hit the windows button and when the run came up I was to type in misconfig. I did this and it went into safemode and is now stuck. The window page comes up with Administrator and my name. When I click on it it states that my Windows has not been activated properly. I have been using this computer for 4 years. I contacted Microsoft, they asked for my windows number to activate it. Microsoft said that it was blocked and that they do not support that software anymore. It is Windows XP Home Edition with service pack 3. Does anyone know how to get his out of safemode?

Thanks, but it skips past the safemode screen then goes to the windows screen with the administrator and my name. When I click on either it states that my Windows has not been activated properly.

To my knowledge, MS never produced, authorized or sold an XP-3 Integrated Product.

Where did you get the installation CD and PID from ????

Statement Still Holds. :)

Thanks for all your help. I will try the Microsoft number you sent.

I did not buy Microsoft XP -3, Miscrosoft XP was installed and the service packs were updates.

i THOUGHT MS said XP support would end in 2014?

He may be the victim of a corporate product key where the corporation has moved on and the key is no longer supported.
