pretty sure that I had activated it but, now, I see a message in the Control
panel that the activation must be done within 13 days. The online activation
does not work and, when I try the phone activation, entering the ID number
first, it says that this option has expired. I seem to have run into a road

Sony compatibility with Ultimate
I have been trying to get the Windows Aero feature to work with my Sony
desktop. Contacted Sony Support and they told me ALL Sony computers are not
compatible with Ultimate. I was shocked since Sony is one of the world's
largest suppliers of computers. I have a Sony Vaio desktop. Just installed
Ultimate. So far so good. I can live without Aero if I have to. Anyone
have any thoughts...

Hard drive switch...now problems
I recently had to install vista on a new hard drive after my other one failed
(got it RMA'd). Now its telling me I have to re-register or something-I tried
the product key on the Vista box, but it isn't accepting it. Nothing else has
changed in the system, just the hard drive.

My friend put on a non-genuine copy of vista ULTIMATE on my laptop. It kept
asking me to activate with the product key, but as this was not genuine i

My friend told me that it would just stop asking me for the product key, but
since i didn't activate my vista in time it has now de-activated and locked
me out of my computer.
