Vista RC1 activation dvd

[Guest]

When I load into Vista RC1, after I 've activated, Vista asks me to insert
the installation DVD to complete activation. I insert the DVD and nothing
happens.
?????????????

I have loaded Vista RC1 on 14 computers so far. I have never seen that
message. You certainly have done something different. Perhaps if you were to
explain how you installed?

Hey Richard. Thanks for the reply. Interesting response. All I did was an
install on a partitioned drive. (Nothing unique here) Then I activated (maybe
something there. I activated after installation) Once I completed the
activation, I installed Office 2007 Pro Plus [Beta]. Then, upon restart, I
recieved the unique "Insert Vista Installation CD/DVD" message. I've since
wiped the original installation (format), re-installed Vista RC1, Office 2007
Beta and all seems better ...
If I have more issues, I'll post here and again, Tx for the reply.
