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.
Apparently, and I can't say how, the above files became unregistered.
Additional Troubleshooting:
You are prompted to activate Windows every time you restart your computer
