Hello himanshu1995,
Internet Access is not required to Activate. Use the Activate by Phone method. If you have any problems accessing the Activate by Phone wizard, try the alternate steps below.
To Activate by Phone:
a) If you have access to the Start button: Click the Start button, and type slui 4 in the search field and then press the "Enter" key. This will bring up the Activate by Phone dialog window. Follow the steps provided by the window. The phone activation process should only take about 6 minutes.
b) If you do not have access to the Start button: Reboot and login to Vista, a dialog window will come up. In that window, click the option "Access computer with reduced functionality". Once you do that, Internet Explorer or Firefox browser will open. In the address bar type c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe press enter, a new window will come up, type: slui 4 and hit enter and follow steps to Activate over the Phone.
NOTE: The important thing to this process is that you need to talk to a Live Activation Rep! When you first call, you will be interacting with an Automated Voice, either select the option to talk to a Live Rep or if there is no option, do not enter any numbers. This should force the automated voice to transfer you to a Live Rep.
Thank you,
Darin MS
Note: Computers that come with Windows pre-installed are required to include some way to reinstall Windows. Manufacturers do not usually include a restore disk anymore (save cost probably) they now usually include the restore software on a hideden partition on the computer's hard drive. The documentation that came with the computer should be able to provide more information. You may also comtact the manufacturer and request a replacment restore disk (sometimes they call it a recovery disk).
