Hi,
I have a problem with keyfinder. I've installed a slipstreamed (nlite) Version of XP SP2 using an additional retail license I have (XP1 upgrade). Now I'd like to change the license on that computer back to its original (HP) OEM key so I can sell the retail license, which I don't need anymore. So I've been trying keyfinder 1.72 final as well as the lates RC, but all I get using the recommended method for changing the key is this -

and using the beta SP2 version, the computer will take some time thinking and then do nothing until I press exit. The key is not changed, however. I even checked if I need to reboot for changes to take effect. The key I entered IS the key printed on the OEM sticker on the computer, I double checked that.
Is this my mistake? Am I doing something wrong? It all seems pretty straight forward to me, but there's always a chance. Is there a technical problem with changing a license back from a retail XP SP1 upgrade license to an OEM XP SP1 license? Is there a rememdy for this problem?
Thanks a lot for every help!
best, smx
