My Vista it's activated...but I keep getting the popup saying it's not Genuine. Not much of experience on any of the windows operating sistems but why do i have to go through this for something that i pay dearly. Get your act together and stop mocking the costumers.
Please also post the error code you get (if any) when you validate by clicking "Validate Windows" here: www.microsoft.com/genuine The error code will be gray and in brackets at the end of them message on the page that says validation failed. (It'll look something like this: [0xC004C000]).
