| | Re: activation code hacked How do you know it is in use? Are you trying to reactivate? If so, of course it is in - by YOU, when you first activated the system. Continue on to the phone activation option. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) "sam" <sam@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:716C5AF4-6FE4-4438-90EF-720C60A90D5A@microsoft.com... > How does it come my activation code is allready in use . > I'm using it for a couple of months and now he says my code is allready in > use > what should i do |

| | RE: activation code hacked If you have been using the activation code for two months why are you now trying to reactivate? Did you reinstall? Did you change any of your hardware? Added any external hard drives? Did the OS come preinstalled on a new computer? If not, did you update or do a clean install? Did you activate your product key during the installation process? You are asking someone to help you but you do not provide any pertinent information. C.B. |

| | Re: activation code hacked He doesn't need to answer your questions. He didn't ask WHY. He asked how to do it. Whatever caused it to ask for activation is immaterial to his question in this case. All he has to do is activate by phone. When he gets around to asking "why" it happened, all sorts of questions will be asked - if he doesn't give the particulars. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) "CB" <CB@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A7AD7D45-B666-488B-A326-30085FD75CCB@microsoft.com... > > > If you have been using the activation code for two months why are you now > trying to reactivate?

| | Re: activation code hacked instead of asking stupid questions , cb and mick try to be normal and help someone. i didn't ask a hard question . i'm not trying to reactivate and i din't reïnstalled it. the OS asks on a sudden moment for activation and when i did it, he says my code is already in use . wich means that i can't do windows update anymore . but i think richard has been a good help by telling me to acivate by phone ( sorry for my english ) "Richard Urban" wrote: > He doesn't need to answer your questions.
