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.

it told me that I had to activate, I clicked on it, it was just a
re-install on the same computer. This computer is always on the
internet, so it is not a connection issue. Every day for the last 30
days it tells me how long I have left to activate, I click on it every
time and it tells me that I am activated. I, apparently incorrectly,
figured that after the 30 days it would just stop telling me that.
