[Guest]

I downloaded vista from the Windows Vista Customer Preview Program—RC1 Update
website. i downloaded the iso and it installed fine and i have no major
problems -apart from when i try to activate it says -

the product key you entered does not work with this edition of windows vista.

I installed Vista Home Basic

i have 2 product keys from microsoft and neither work

i have 14 dyas left to activate - help would be appreciated

It was my understanding that the CD Key can only be used on the Ultimate
Edition. Try to install taht edition and use the key you have. Hope this
helps.
