I bought another copy of Windows 7 professional retail, but this time it wont activate saying the key is blocked. It came in genuine sealed packaging. The disks are genuine. I've ran the validation at www.microsoft.com/genuine and it came back ok. Yet I
cannot activate. This isn't an MSDN key, it's a genuine one. What's going on??? I've opened a case with Ebay, but these can take ages to resolve. I know that for XP you could send in the disks and they would send you a working key, do they offer this for Windows
7?? I can't find it :(
I ran the reporting tool, output:-
