Hello. I got vista about a month ago and I just put new memory in today. I
noticed that it wants me to re-activate windows. When I go to do that, it
says that my product key is being used on a different computer. What do I do?
I have 3 days to activate!!

Use phone activation and speak to a real person

You need to ask permission to use what you've paid for. Ain't that
grand? Use the phone activation and maybe they'll let you use what
you've paid for.

If you're tired of this crap, check out Open Source at www.ubuntu.com/

Don't hang up and, eventually, you will get an operator whose English
you can barely understand.

A phone call is so much better and easier than using that toy os, unbuntu.
Alias is a communist mf atheist lying linux loser.
Pay no attention to him, he knows nothing.

Better than trolling messageboards looking for answers to problems, and
hoping someone isn't too pretentious to deny you help you or call you a
n00b.

Here's what you get from Frank:


You bandwidth sucking moron! You've wasted more energy posting this
diatribe of a message than all the Vista computers in the world use in
sleep mode.
Get lost you stupid jackass.
Frank

You're a genuine moron...hahaha...linux loser.
Hahahahahahahah...you just gotta love it!Take your pointy head out of
your arse for a few seconds and...well go ahead and leave it there.
That's where it's always been and that's where it belongs.
Frank
Idiot!
Frank


hehehe...they're getting to you aren't they alias...hahaha...loser.
You're a genuine moron...hahaha...linux loser.
Hahahahahahahah...you just gotta love it!
Idiot!
Frank

Can't control your rage over me kick your dumb arse all over this ng can
you, you stupid moron!
Never said some things in Vista aren't broken, they're just aren't
consistently broken and obviously you don't have the computer acumen to
figure out how to fix them or do workarounds.
You have one big stupid mouth and your pointy head shoved all the way up
your arse.
Give it up bozo as you'll never be smarter than most people.
Frank

So your now admitting to being a pimp?
Have you no pride?
I guess not after seeing all the lies and bs you've posted in this Vista ng.
Loser.
Frank

You fukkin drunk again or what?
Sober up as*hole.
Frank

Ever get tired of my booting your ignorant drunken arse all over this mg?
I sure don't..hahaha...lol!
Frank

Get a fukkin life you moron loser!
Frank

You couldn't kick those empty beer cans our of your way you miserable drunk.
The only thing you own is a beer belly and a bald head.
You're a joke!
Frank

Well spoken for such an arrogant, self-centered linux troll.
It mind numbing how you constantly present yourself without any class at
all in this ng on a daily basis.
You are really one dumb, numb and clueless human being.
Frank

Do you have point or are you just slobbering all over your keyboard (as
usual!), huh?
Frank
