I have built my self a new system for microsoft Vista 64 .I have put the OEM
version onto my system and i am now being told that the product key is
already in use .I have had to reinstall the software as some of the drivers
were not signed ? Therefore because i had to reinstall the os ,is it saying
that the product key is already in use becuase i had to reinstall the os ? or
is it becuase i got the OEM version and just put it straight onto the machine
without using the OPK kit , that it is not activating ? or lastly but not
least , have a got a copy ? in that case i will bring it back to the shop ?
any help would be much appreicared Babs

Select the option to activate by phone.
Call Microsoft at the displayed number, normally done in about 5 minutes.
