Hello there,

I bought a upgrade version (Vista Home Premium) yesterday and did a clean
install (backup'd files I still needed). Everything is working fine accept
for the fact that i can't activate Vista. When i enter my product key it says
that this version is meant for upgrade and not for a new install. I found
that a bitt odd because I had to clean install. Anyway, now i'm trying to get
a new license key and I keep getting this error:


Error
We are unable to process your order at this time. Please try again later.
Error Code: 1067

=====

I simply want my Vista activated , that's all. Can anyone help?

thank you
