I am sure, once you start to read this, you will find yourself totally helpless to get rid of it till you will not finish it.

Insert FreeDOS floppy disk in floppy drive and start computer. At A:>_ prompt type DATE. FreeDOS will return your computer's current date, along with a prompt to enter a new date. Enter date that you installed Windows XP (or at least a date before 30 day expiration date). Remove FreeDOS floppy disk and restart your computer.

Note: This will only work if Windows XP has never been started after 30 day expiration date. The first time Windows XP is started after 30 day expiration date will be last time it starts.

Every time you start your computer, start it first with FreeDOS and reset computer's date to date that you installed Windows XP. Windows XP will think time has come to a standstill.

Note: Of course, Your file creation and last modified dates will not be correct, so this is not really a way for a serious user to bypass Windows XP product activation. However for certain purposes, like learning Windows XP operating system, this can be a way to use Windows XP without product activation.

Microsoft should have made expiration period much longer than 30 days. Maybe they want you to activate Windows XP before it crashes.
