  I recently had a hard drive failure on my Dell Studio 1340 due to a anti virus spam.  I reinstalled a new hard drive and reloaded from my REBIT BACKUP.  I tried to activate my Vista Home Premium 64 bit but got an error message 0x80070426.  I have run the MGA Diagnostic tool and it says my Vista is Genuine.  Why can I not activate it?
