Hello,
I have installed Vista Ultimate and activated the software. Everything worked like a charm. However when I try to download files from download.microsoft.com I cannot validate the software. I have tried both versions of the validation process. What can I do to make this work? I have tried the suggestion of reactivating the software but this doesn’t help. Welcome Center states “activated”. Everything else works fine and I can download files from everywhere except download.microsoft.com. This message is written on the computer in question. Thanks in advance /David |

The diagnosticspage takes med to validate windows (moment 22). I get the following error 0x80080296.5. I have checked the list. Script/Activex/The Clock and so on. Everything is correct. What else can i do? /David "Carey Frisch [MVP]" wrote: > Microsoft Genuine Advantage – Diagnostic Site > http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/diag/ > > -- > Carey Frisch > Microsoft MVP > Windows - Shell/User > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > "David" wrote: > > Hello, > > I have installed Vista Ultimate and activated the software.
