BTW, does it add to the crapiness if the WinXP is a pirated one? Is this a factor in stability? Can pirated WinXP's be upgraded/updated? Is there a way to verify if components of a pirated WinXP are more or less the same as the original? Perhaps an MD5SUM tool used by XP? This is OT but I would like to know.
