Vista - Vista Activation

Under Windows Activation in CtrlPanel->SystemAndMaint->System I'm trying to
active windows by clicking the link by the keys. Nothing happens and it says
I have 0 day(s) left. How can I get my MSDN license activated?

Thanks,
Darren

Were you connected to Internet when you click Activation button in System? Be
sure to connect with Internet before you do the Activation process. After
connecting open atleast any one website and then try to Activate Windows.

Hope this is what you were missing. Let us know!

It finally activated itself. It just didn't do it on command or give me any
notification that it was trying to activate. I clicked it several times and
then a couple days later i got a balloon popup that said it was activated.
Some type of "in progress" notification would've been nice.
