    i have had the hard  drive on my Asus notebook replaced due to a faulty sector (under waranty from Asus). I got the machine back, installed Vista (home premium) and tryed to activate. the program said the serial code had already been used (as it has, with my other hard drive). How do i activate windows on the computer now? the other hard drive is non operational (Asus teck suppot has it). What do i have to do? I am only using windows on the one machine - the exact same machine (minus the hard drive) it was on before

    Hello jonnol,

     

      It appears that to resolve your issue, you must Activate Windows using the "Activate by Phone" method. Please follow the below option that that best fix your given issue scenario:


    a) If you have access to the Start button: Click the Start button, and type in "slui.exe 4" in the search field and then press the "Enter" key. This will bring up the Activate by Phone dialog window. Follow the steps provided by the window. The phone activation process should only take about 6 minutes.


    b) If you do not have access to the Start button: Reboot and login to Vista, a dialog window will come up. In that window, click the option "Access computer with reduced functionality". Once you do that, Internet Explorer or Firefox browser will open. In the address bar type "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe" press enter, a new window will come up, type: slui 4 and hit enterand follow steps to Activate over the Phone.


    NOTE: The key to this process is that you need to talk to a Live Activation Rep! When you first call, you will be interacting with an Automated Voice, either select the option to talk to a Live Rep or if there is no option, do not enter any numbers. This should force the automated voice to tansfer you to a Live Rep.
