Hi there, i recently completed a new build and used my XP pro disc from a long time back i had lying around. When i come to install items from microsoft it says that the copy of windows is counterfitted?, i mean i havent downloaded it or anything!. I have tried updating WMP from the help>check for updates but it says there isnt any available..currently its wmp8. Can anyone shed some light on this matter?

Thanks Ryan

hi its me again..sorry for the confusion but its now come to light that its a copy my friend gave me. Does this mean i have to go pay £50 for a new copy and reinstall everything or is there a way around it?

thanks
