| | RE: DNS Name does not exist Hello Bill, You need to change your product key to a MAK key or you need to setup a KMS server to communicate with. You installed a Volume License edition of Windows Vista that ships with generic key. You have to do more before activating Start with Volume Licensing Links for Windows Vista: Starting documentation: http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/r...l/default.mspx Microsoft includes product activation technology in some products that are sold through original equipment manufacturer (OEM), retail, and Volume Licensing channels. The Windows Vista operating system will require Volume Licensing customers to use a new type of activation, called Volume Activation. Volume Activation is a flexible solution that enables Volume Licensing customers to more securely and easily activate computers that are running Windows Vista. In the future, Volume Activation technology will be used for all Microsoft products, but it is being introduced in Windows Vista.
