Many thanks guys. Your replies pointed me in the direction of the OOBE
folder. I replaced the more 'modern' version with an older set of files from
disc and it allowed me to re-activate with no problems (albeit the screen was
still a bit 'dodgy' looking) I didn't know where to look otherwise. You put
me at ease after 2 days of fretting.
Cheers.
