Activation

[Guest]

I've just got round to installing my copy of Vista and it say's my Activation
period has expired and I must activate to use Windows, when I try to activate
it it come up with error 0xC004f021 and when I ring customer support they
tell me that the activation code is invalid, can anyone help please?

If you have a Product Key (Note: Product Key is alphanumeric, and cannot be
found on the "System information" Window) that you received from MSFT for
Windows Vista Beta 2 Build 5384, it is valid for unlimited
installations/re-installations on up to 10 different computers.

Either you are mis-reading the Product Key ("B's" look like "8's," "O's"
look like "0's" for example) or you are using a Product Key that already has
been used on 10 other computers.

Hi,

I have read the code right and had it confirmed by our Microsoft rep, they
said a similar thing, but I have only installed it on the one laptop, funnily
I have installed Beta 1 with no problems at all, at this time I am gh0st1ng
my laptop and will attempt an upgrade from there. still no luck with a
straight install though. :'(
