Billy, You just simply need to go to start menu, accessories, system tools and activate windows. This will start a commonly online process to verify that the version of winodws is legal. This can also be done over the phone, but if it's not done within 30 days the OS becomes unusable. As in it won't boot.

I have now been able to Install xp home off the recovery disk, without Norton/ aol. The Installation went okay, but now when I boot-up I'm getting the following: 30 days left for Activation. What does this message mean?, The copy of xp home was in the system, when I purchased it, and there was no bundled software, just the recovery disk.
