Hi:
After doing a fresh install with a Windows XP Pro SP2 OEM CD, I activated
via the internet and all was good.
So you had the Product to do it then.
I then installed some video drivers and
restarted. Upon restart, I was prompted to activate again before I could log
in. I couldn't activate over the internet this time, so I tried telephone
activation. The problem is that there is no installation ID--the number that
telephone support asks for.
What happened to the Product key you had before, the one you
successfully used to activate over the internet?
It is a m$ problem in their asking for an "installation-ID" instead of asking
for the "installation-ID" OR product-key. There people who don't equate the
product-key can be used "instead of" the "installation-ID"; the same fact hold
true for the m$ "support" email where the "installation-ID" is required & no
mention of being able to use the product-key that came with the CD.
I never saw my "installation-ID" for winxp or the ms ultimate office 2007;
where is it located or be found????? or did m$ just used different semantics
for the product-key in order to confuse people so as not to provide "support".
.
I've reinstalled, deleting and recreating
partitions beforehand, and I still have the same problem. Please, someone,
help! Thank you in advance!
