Hi after reinstalling windows xp it will not let me log on because it
tells me I haven't activated it yet. but it won't let me get any of my
drivers etc installed so I can activate it over the internet. I know I
can phone them and carry out the activation that way but I was just
wondering why it would behave like this.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.



No my copy was activated but my hard disk got corrupt and I had to use
a replacement hard disk. It was a clean install on a slightly used but
freshly fdisked and formatted harddisk. Yes it's blocking the login. I
just can't fathom out why it went belly up.
