Help - Windows XP Activation problem

[jiml]

I completed the windows product activation via phone for Windows Media
Center

All was working fine first time through the process of activation and login.

Rebooted and now I get a widow that says that this copy of windows needs
activation , "Do you want to activate it now?"

So, I click YES and later get a windows that says "Windows is already
activated"..

This process keeps repeating whenever I try to login..

How can I fix this??

TIA..
Jim

Try deleting the wpa.dbl & wpa.bak files, and rebooting.
