Vista Validation Issues After Reformatting

Question

Due to spyware seriously slowing down my computer, i reformat my computer with a genuine Vista Home Premium CD. However after reinstallation, i cannot reactivate my key, saying that it was in use.

2. Press the Enter key on your keyboard.
3. Select your Country.
4. Follow the instructions for phone activation.
5. Once completed, restart your computer.

Thanks so much. Now my window is activated.
However one more question, if i want to reformat my hard disk and reinstall window, is there anyway to avoid the deletion of window activation code so that i don't have to reactivate it after reformatting?
Anyway, thank you for helping me out. :)Monday, October 13, 2008 5:35 AM -
Each time you reinstall Windows Vista, you still must activate/reactivate it.
