I got the same error. This appears to be a new error message code.
Perhaps just the server is down. I am using my MSDN subscription
key... I would hate to think I wasted the last 2 hrs.

I am alos having the same issue. I was down to the last day to activiate and
when I tried, I got the error message. But now it says I have 25 days left
to activate. Here is a telephone number for activiation: 1.888.571.2048

Please reply if someone has a solution.

You should call the number. There are ways to extend activation, but if you
have legit Vista call the number and get it over with.

Hmmm....don't get me started about doing the phone activation. I spent three
hours on the phone with some guy in India (no lie) trying to figure out why
my copy (and yes, it is a legit copy of Ultimate (upgrade)) won't activate.
At first, it showed 30 days to activation. Then it changed to three days
after a day or so. Now it's back to 25 days. I ahve so many numbers he gave
me, a case number, etc, etc....

OK.....I tried the activation again and it went through. Wierd, but at least
it's done. Good luck to the rest.

Can anyone t ell me how to open the activation wizard where they give the #'s
to put in the 9 boxes.

Im getting this error that says the server caused an error and no phone
support to activate windows vista.

I know that the wizard requires a commnad prompt but i forgot the exact
command to type in.
