Yeah I see how that could be confusing. I was really just continuing with your train of thought and what has worked for me in the past. After looking through my Tech Journal that I keep, it seems that the PC license may be deactivated. I the past, there was an issue with the OOBE. Again, the only way I was able to fix this particular issue was to do a repair install. Sorry for the confusion!

Mmh. If a repair installation fixes the OP's problem then he
won't need to edit the registry. If he does NOT perform a
repair installation then he can't edit the registry. Your instructions
are good but I cannot see how the OP could use them.
