| | The product key you typed is already in use I've had my hard drive replaced a week ago and reloaded my Widows Vista Home Premium. Today, a message came up saying that "the product key you typed is already in use. To activate Windows you will need another Windows Vista Home Premium product key." This is the same product that I've had since 27th July 2007 and that I registered when it was loaded on my previous hard drive. How can I get this re-registered? |

| | Re: The product key you typed is already in use When you activate, it gives you the option to activate over the internet or over the phone. Call the phone number, work your way through the prompts and then explain what went on. The people there are fast and friendly and get you all taken care of.

| | Re: The product key you typed is already in use Hey, no problem. I'm glad to see someone actually got help in one of these NG's rather than people flaming each other back and forth about how linux is better than windows is better than osx is better than unix...
