RobberDucky,
IIRC it's a way to do it in registry but it may cause the whole system gone bad not only the OFF-XP2002 since there'r so many keys need to be changed/tweaked.

IMO you shud consider to reinstalling.. it'll do more good than harm that way
IIRC the installer will ask for a key (new kay) no need to uninstall it completely. HTH
