Windows XP SP2 Fresh Install - Activation Problem

F

FRUSTRATED

I've installed a fresh copy of Windows XP SP 2 (SP2 is imbedded into the
install), this was downloaded from our msdn site and burned to a cd. I get
the activation screen and I get a confirmation that activation was
successful. HOWEVER, it kicks me back to a login screen and wants to
re-activate everytime there after. When I try to reactivate, it tells me its
activated already.

I've tried all the fixes about forcing a activation, renaming the wpa.dbl,
msoobe /a, etc. Nothing works.

HELP!!! wasted 6 hours on this issue.
