Re: activation problem "Brett I. Holcomb" <brettholcomb[ at ]bellsouth.net> 6/30/2007 12:03:57 AM Something caused the activation to die. Go through the activation process and use the phone number for your country and tell them what happened. sconno wrote: [Quoted Text] > Two days ago I was using my computer and it hang up,nothing strange,reseted > it and oops: what's this message asking to enter my key to activate windows?I > took a look on the case sticky and entered it down but it tells me that its > not an authentic key (god it's a sticky of Microsoft itself ) how this could > be? > Im really disappointed please help I dont have much time:it says 12 days > left ! > I have an Intel e4300 based comp with 2 g sys ram a geforce 7950 512mb > Kaspersky Antiv 6 win Vista home premium w: all updates from microsoft. > all worked fine aboout 1.5 month then booom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: activation problem "John Barnett MVP" <freelanceit[ at ]mvps.org.NOSPAM> 6/30/2007 12:24:48 PM Go through the activation process but select the 'telephone' option. This is an automated line so you will need to input the generated numbers from the activation screen on your pc into your telephone keypad. In return the automated line will give you another set of numbers that you need to input into the dialogue boxes on your computer screen. If activation fails, then 'stay' on the telephone, you will then be transferred to a 'real' person. Explain to them what has happens and they should be able to help you. -- John Barnett MVP Associate Expert Windows - Shell/User Web: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Web: http://vistasupport.mvps.org The information in this mail/post is supplied "as is".
