My computer had compatibility issues with Vista. The Motherboard and sound
card were not compliant. So I changed the mother board and I got a larger
hard drive and of course the Ram and and just got a Direct X 10 compliant
graphics card. now I plug in the activation code and it says The product key
you typed is already in use. I just bought Vista mabe 2 months ago I have had
problems ever since and now that I upgraded my computer I cannot use it ?

If you can't activate via the Internet because it's been less than
120(?) days since you first activated Vista, simply follow the on-screen
instructions to activate via telephone. As long as you have a retail
license, there's nothing to stop you from transfering it as many times
as you like, just so long as it's only installed on one computer at a time.

Your product key was already in use: by you. You should have an option to
Activate by Phone. Select that, give Microsoft a call and they will get you
activated in about 5-6 minutes.

where do I reregister? I cannot find the promt for vista register. It only
has a upgrade to vista prompt that I can find.
Can I install the 64 bit vista after I have installed the 32 bit one ? How
do I do that?

Thx JC

I tried the phone automated system several times and after repeating that 63
number code several times I get disconnected. I am a very busy person who
DOES NOT HAVE TIME for CRAP LIKE THIS. I paid good money and spent lots of
time on this. Do I need to buy another vista ? Or should I go back to XP
professional ? Or should I complain to my Congressman about how Microsoft has
almost a monopoly on computer systems and that this is the result of that.
Products that DO NOT WORK.

Thank-you

I believe you can use the phone keypad to type in the 63 number code. I've
never been disconnected if it didn't accept the code, it just transfers me
to a rep.
