I recently got a new system so put windows XP on. Then last week i had to reformat my drive because of a virus, and i tried to acticate windows again but I am told I cannot activate XP because I have activated it too many times. I am not going to go out and buy another copy of XP...what do I need to do? P.S. I am in South Korea.
 
Mike;
Choose the option to activate by phone.
Call the displayed toll free number, done in about 5 minutes.

Mmm....and where might that number be found? Is it reachable from
South Korea?

Try activating again. As Jones said, it should be an option in the dialog
presented to you when activation fails.
