Yes, this is the second time i've had validation issues. I just built my own computer, and my current validation key is not working. On my 32-bit Vista CD, I can't even get past the validation screen of the installation setup. On the 64-bit Vista DVD, I can get past the validation screen, but then I can't get past the screen where you have to select your drive to install Vista on. It's detecting the drive just fine, but the Next button isn't highlighted so I can't click it. At the bottom of that window it says something like "In order to use the Product Key you entered, you must install Vista on a computer that is using a genuine version of Windows" or something like that.
The first time I had validation issues was when I reformatted my computer to install a clean copy of Vista 64-bit. The installation worked just fine, but when I went to download a DirectX update, I couldn't validate and then it displayed that my copy of Windows wasn't genuine (Which it is, I purchased it from a retailer). It was eventually resolved, I was issued a new Product Key, but I don't have that with me anymore. Maybe you can e-mail me that CD key again?
So I need a new Product Key for my 32-bit software AND my 64-bit software. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
