Windows Ultimate Activation Registered Key
Apr 18, 2008
I'm Khairil Anuar from ITServices Sdn Bhd, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, one of the participant of Heroes Launch 2008 in Kuala Lumpur. I have some questions that need clarification regarding the Windows Vista Ultimate DVD.
1. I had received the DVD, registered and received the product key.
2. I had chosen "5000 or more" machines for the DVD when first registered.
3. I had no problem installing WVU on the first 2 machines. However, on the 3rd and 4th machines, I received an error message when trying to activate WVU. I was informed that the product key has already been used by other machines and I was asked to buy another product key?

I am not sure if I have been scammed by the seller of my computer or if I have some other issues that are causing my validation to be required. In one place it says that I may be a victim of software counterfeiting. When I chose to go online and resolve it will not validate. In the other place it says to activate windows now. I purchased the computer in November 2007 and haven't had any problems until this month. Is it a coincedence that it has been 6 months? Today is my last day to activate and would like to know the best steps to take to resolve this issue.

I just removed DVD drive from ASUS R1E laptop and plugged in extra battery pack and after I plugged in USB portable hard drive WD Passport Vista now requires activation. I use this system for about 1 year and I used it in exactly the same configuration before. OS says that there was a hardware change and now I need to activate OS within 3 days. The only difference from previous config is that now I have connected receiver for US wireless Microsoft keyboard and mouse and 4 port USB hub. I also changed power plan to conserve battery power and at that moment Vista shown activation message in tray. Is there a limitation how many USB devices in total can I plug in? I think I may have used about 10 - 15 different devices including USB flash memory.What can I do to revert the activation request? I don't have any other product key, but the original one that came with the laptop.

My laptop came with Vista Home Premium installed. I downloaded a Flash-BIOS update as per advice of my HP Care Centre. After it was done installing my laptop shut off (as I was told it would do). When I turned it back on, I was prompted to enter a Product Activation Key. I entered the Windows Product Key as shown on the sticker on the base of the laptop. The message I received was "The Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed is invalid for activation" For the record, YES, I am entering the code in properly.

When I try to activate my newly installed Windows Vista Enterprise an error message appears saying: DNS-naam bestaat niet. (in English DNS-name doesn't exist). So I'm unable to activate my Windows Vista. This may result in problems within 3 days.
My vista license is a MS-KISS license.

just been looking at the windows activation page on my new PC, Where it says product ID: it has a list of numbers in this order= 5 numbers - 3 numbers - 7 numbers - 5 numbers Non of these numbers match what is on the sticker on the back of the machine! On that sticker it's a mix of numbers and letters. Do I just click continue with the line of numbers which is already there, or do I insert the number and letter combination which is on my sticker?
I posted this in another forum and one person said the id that is already there and the key on the sticker should be different! The other person said delete the numbers and put the letter and numbers from the sticker in there!

I had to replace my motherboard because of a power surge (I've now bought protection - better late than never!) and when I tried to boot up my computer I got a message saying that Vista couldn't boot but it would try and repair the installation. In the event it couldn't and it asked for the installation disc. Vista installed OK but it would no longer accept the Product Key saying that my disc was for an upgrade (correct) and not for a clean installation. ObviouI now appear to have two expensive choices:
1 To buy a new key
or
2 To ask for Windows technical support which I have to pay for

I have a Creative Zen Micro Mp3 player. It always worked fine with my old Laptop (windows XP) and it originally worked with this laptop (windows Vista). Then after my computer crash and I had to restore everything, it stopped syncing right with the computer. Every time I plug the USB cable in, it says the device is not connected. Now, another problem is that I have to update the firmware on my Mp3 player in order for it to work (So I can also put more music onto it). But in order to do that, I need it to connect.and before I forget: Yes, I tried changing USB cords and different USB ports.

I just migrated to 64 bit Vista and I have Windows Mail. When I was using 32 bit Vista I had all my Hotmail folders, newsgroups, calendar, etc. when I selected the Mail icon. Is there a way to migrate Hotmail to Windows Mail, or a way to replace Windows Mail with what I had when I was using 32 bit Vista? I had IE 8 with 32 bit and I have IE 8 with 64 bit.

I have a HP pavilion laptop which came with 64 bit vista ultimate pre-installed. I shrinked the OS partition (160 GB), created new partition (40 GB) for 64 bit windows 7 ultimate. After installation of Windows 7, I cannot see the vista ultimate boot option when I boot my PC. When I boot into Windows 7, I still can see the vista partition. But instead of C: it is now displayed as E: I used the HP Recovery Disc to repair windows vista but I can only see a blank blue screen with the mouse pointer. How can I recover the vista?

I just tried importing an mp3 and I'm receiving the message: "mp3 could not be imported. Class not registered." I don't know what this means. It's not a protected file. This isn't the first movie I've made, but this is the first time I've had a problem importing the music.

I joined this forum for one reason and one reason alone. To learn about Vista. I currently use Windows XP Pro 32bit. The OS as treated me wonderfully and hasn't given me a hard time in any way. I expect Windows Vista to do the same (at least I hope it will.) I am looking to upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate x64. I need to know if my system specs will work on Vista. I already know to upgrade the RAM, so thats all settled. (Going to upgrade to 8GB) Here's my rig specs: ...............

I got a problem with a reinstall of Vista 64 Home Premium. A few days ago I tried to manually force activation of Vista, and I was told the key was already in use. I thought it was due to recently reinstalling it so I just let it go. Today it tried to automatically activate and it failed. The error is the same that the key is already being used.
1. I have no other PC's with Vista on.
2. Nobody visited me recently, and I can't think of anyone I know who would steal the key.
3. I never posted my key anywhere online
What can I do in this situation? When I click a support link in the activation window I am being told support cost 540 Dkr which translates to US$80-90 which is almost as much as I paid for my Vista!

I just built a new PC with Vista Ultimate 64 service pack 1 installed. When i run Windows update, it says "Windows is up to date" and no options for updates are available. There are no errors given. I am trying to install drivers for my graphics card (evga eGeforce 9600 GT in a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P motherboard) and when i restart I keep getting the Blue Screen of Death so I wanted to make sure and get all the latest Windows updates. The native Windows video driver works fine, but I want to use dual monitors.

I have been having major problems with Vista for the past 10 days. It seemed to start after 2 updates on May 13th and I spent several hours on the phone with Microsoft on May 18th and things seemed better - the remaining problem is that the system locks up after a period of inactivity - usually and hour or two. It has also locked with a backup program running and thus fails to complete the backup. Each of the following errors seem to re-appear in the event log each time
the system locks -
Event ID 45 - volmgr ??? the system could not load the crash dump driver
Event ID 7000 ??? Service Control Manager Event Log Provider - The Parallel
port driver service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
Event ID 6008 - Event Log System - The previous system shutdown at 9:41:14 AM on 5/22/2008 was unexpected. I have to shut down using the power button and restart.

I went to Microsoft's website and found this but not sure this is correct so I wanted to make 100% sure this is the correct update for me and my software as there are several version of Vista out.

A long time ago, Windows Update installed SP1 on my Home Premium system and it shows that in the Control Panel>System display. However, I recently re-installed Ultimate on another system and it does not show SP1 in the Control Panel>System display. Windows Update does not offer SP1 as an update for this system. Windows Update did do a whole bunch of updates that took several reboots etc. after the initial installation. How do I know if SP1 has been applied? WinBubbles shows Build 6000? I downloaded a copy of SP1 somewhere along the way just in case I needed it and am tempted to run it on the Ultimate system but I would like MSFT to handle the job through Window Update just to make sure I get the right stuff.
