  Denise,

   

  You will need to validate Windows XP Pro and Media Player 11 by connecting the computer to the internet.  Also you may contact the Microsoft Update Solution Center @ http://support.microsoft.com/ph/6527#tab0 for further guidance. This forum is geared for Windows Genuine Advantage situations. Do you have the means for connecting this computer and validating via an internet connection?

   

   

  Hope I was able to help you more Denise.

  unfortunately, I do not have the means to connect this computer to the internet - otherwise this issue wouldn't really be much of an issue (if at all). 
  
  I found a temporary way around this - by uninstalling 11 and then installing 9 (does not require validation) - however, I still need to find an answer to this as I am sure that 9 will be insufficient on this computer in the future. 
  
  My windows XP pro box does not come up with the WGA error, so I can only assume that it has been validated (and passed).
