| | Re: How to active my vista Hi, Some hardware changes, as well as reinstalling Vista, will necessitate a need to reactivate your installation. As your Product Key has already been used, the "over the 'net" activation will report the key as being in use. The solution is to use the phone activation method. If the automated sequence doesn't work, just hold the line for a real person to activate it. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "htyf" <htyf@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:C2F445E4-DCE5-4037-8807-861D24CDCE6D@xxxxxx Quote: >I am university student, I got a business vista editon from the university > it's th MSDN edition.
