Validation of MSDN edition of VISTA

Question
-
Like many others, I have been made an "bad guy" overnight. Please fix this ASAP. It is pretty annoying! I guess MS is testing a way to get rid of all the leeches that don't pay for their software - fair enough. BUT please do NOT test this on us! Testing is already a teadious business without this kind of trouble.

Hello,
Please open a command prompt and type: slui 4
then hit enter. This will allow you to go through phone activation. Once you've done that please try to revalidate by clicking on "Validate Windows" here: www.microsoft.com/genuine
Let me know if that works. Thanks a lot!

Hello,
Can you tell me what you're experiencing? Are you non-genuine? Are you activated? What error code are you seeing? (If you're getting a non-genuine message, you can view the error message by trying to validate again here: www.microsoft.com/genuine . The error code will be at the end of the message on the validation failure webpage. It will be gray and in brackets.)
Thanks!

Hi,
Yes, I am a genuine MSDN licensed user. Activated=yes. Errorcode=[0xC004C4A6]
The problem appeared after a restart. I'm not sure if there is anything I could have done before the restart, that trigged it.
Have tryed reinserting serial and reactivate. Same result: a window pops up and tells me "This copy of Windows is not genuine"
This Vista was installed 2-3 days after the release to MSDN users.
It is of course being used to test. We have webbased systems on embedded LINUX, that we must be sure work on IE 7 and Vista. You know how it is with users - something new "Gotta have it!" never mind if its necessary ;-) (I'm not like that myself... well ok then, a little.)
I have a textfile with a dump of windows errors (from System Information) if is of any use.
Thanks for your concern

Hi,
It worked!
! But remember to restart the computer after this activation.
A comment to the activation by phone. WOW. A lot of numbers!! And when receiving the activation code, it might be good to slow down a bit.
Thanks for your assistance. It was REALLY beginning to P.. me off.
The strange thing was that I had no problem activating - ever. It just didn't have any affect, when done from inside Vista.
