Forum rules


Before you post, please make sure...

- ...your topic is related to betas or abandonware. If it is not, don't post it here. Better help sites exist else where.
- ...you have first used Google to look for an answer, and you have asked other people you know via other methods (IM, e-mail, etc).
- ...your question has not been asked before. Search the forum first before posting.

If you meet those criteria, go ahead and post your question. Be sure to provide as much information you can about the problem and how to recreate it. Also provide information on hardware and software if applicable.

When looking for XP Torrents and etc, make sure you find one that has "VLK" or Corp in the title.

You wont be required to activate it, but if you want to download something such as Media Player from Microsoft's website, you will have to do the Genuine test and etc.

The one he said, that is an Beta version of XP SP3.
And it's VLK, but it requires an key you need to input.

Otherwise it wouldn't be here because it's warez then.

Everything that is not freeware/abandonware or is still support is warez.
Windows 2000 is still warez until 2010.

But straith simple answer:
Yes
