After upgrading to the lastest Nvidia video drivers for my system three days ago, I get a message stating that I need to activate my copy of Windows. However, according to my system properties, my copy of Windows is already activated. My copy was activated several weeks ago when I loaded Vista...
From the WGA page when I try to validate my copy of Vista:
Windows must be activated before validation can determine if this copy of Windows is genuine.
