Built a new machine for my technophobic father who would not tolerate any change to hat he is used to - computer wise. So, got a copy of WinXP from Ebay and loaded it.
Then he decides he doesn't want the new machine.
So, Ihaven't "registered" the OS yet and I am getting close to the deadline.
Two questions:
What happens if I never do? Does it start to fail? Or do the MS cops knock at the door?
Can I wipe the hard drive of any trace of XP and save it for another day, when he decides it might be alright to change?
