After the upgrade completes and logging into windows it comes up with this
screen

A change has occurred to your windows license - it then asks for a new key.
I put in the key and click next and it sits there for about 7 minutes before
coming back with an error

Authentication Failed with the following error 0x800705B4

I am able to launch ie by using a link in the help system and through that I
am able to browse the internet. So I know I am connected to the internet.

Is there a number I can call to manually active this so I can get to the
windows desktop?

Or something else I can do to get past this reactivation window?
 
Thanks for the tip,

This however did not work for me. The administrator account is not disabled
and I have been able to log as administrator and it still does the same
thing.


The

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
