Just downloaded the latest vista build 5308 from msdn, problem is i cant activate it.
says i cant activate any more copies, the only thing is that this is the first install i ever tryed with as far as i can remember, atleast for this build...
anyone know how to fix this?

Where did you obtain your copy of Windows Vista? Have you tried changing the product key and activate again? (Start > Control Panel > System > Change Product Key) What type of user account are you activating under, Administrator or Standard? -- Andre Windows Connect | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta "Johnny Granberg" wrote in message

Andre; I think you missed this line: "Just downloaded the latest vista build 5308 from msdn" MSDN has the 32 and 64 bit versions.
