It is possible Microsoft has turned activation off, but I am not certain of that.

ASKER

none of them worked guys but thank you
it didn't worked but thanks buddy
Then either try a new XP CD or then maybe it is no longer possible to activate. Microsoft is getting rid of XP.
bro I am having this problem with 3 oses windows server 2003,windows XP sp2,windows me
I saw a post where Server 2003 would not activate and that was because Microsoft will not activate it. So activation for really old retired systems appears to be gone.
I am having this problem since I have updated my bios

Check the BIOS settings for the hard disk.

If they are set for AHCI mode then change them to IDE or Legacy mode.  Then try and reinstall.

Quite possibly you are trying to install Windows XP mode onto a SATA drive without SATA drivers on your CD.
No worries Saksham. Glad I was able to help.
