windows XP not genuine

[ghosthunter]

but one thing I observed. this is not true with a non-branded desktop with a bootlegged copy of XP. my wife uses a Shuttle XPC barebone unit with GFX video. I installed 1GB of RAM for her, pero everytime nag-uupdate ng Windows nya, pabagal ng pabagal yun PC to the point na kelangan ng mag-reinstall. in fact, mas mabilis pa in the long run yun laptop with only 512MB and a not so powerful ATI video card.

so I'm guessing automatic updates really work if you use an orig XP with a branded PC.

it depends... it might be the heat inside the shuttle that is causing the problems.
