Greetings --

    It may be that your activation has become "unregistered." Try
this solution, posted by Carey Frisch, MS-MVP:

Possible Resolution:

Boot into "Safe Mode" by pressing (F8) during a reboot.

Go to Start > Run and type: regsvr32 regwizc.dll , and hit enter.
Then go again to Start > Run and type: regsvr32 licdll.dll , and
hit enter again.

> I recently re-installed WinXP and keep getting prompted that I only
have so many days to activate windows, but when I click on the
"activate windows" button, it says that it is already activated.  Then
it closes the window.  This happens everytime I start it up.  Any
suggestions?
