wine users - Dec 2011 - Trying ProduKey to extract winXP from harddrive --

get error 1314 ; Privilege not held

I put the copied  registry hive everywhere and always the same
even on a FAT32 flash drive

always the same

google ProduKey for free code

I can get u a hive/registry if you wish to try it

 ie /windows/system32/config/software

This can be very useful for ppl wanting to install a fresh version of windows
when their win32 system is dead from virus and they lost their keys--opps

Re past post,

I am trying to to recover lost win XP keycode to allow reinstalling of WIN into
VM of whatever form

There is no windows install with this program. It is standalone trying to
recover the CD key for Win xp.

I have a drive on an IDE with win XP, I boot in ubuntu and can copy the hive
/registry to anywhere needed

then use wine to run ProduKey and give it the loc of the hive...not matter
what... I get priv violation

clearly i am not trying to copy the real winxp hive in binary to the wine
hive<ascii>
and then have produkey.exe work on that

it can work directly on the ext system hive binary to decypt the keys
