I am having problems activiating vista RC1 Build 5600
I have numerous erros starting with 0xC004C003
After using slmgr -ipk and -ato
I then am told the error is 0xC004C0F50/25 and that i haven't got
administration privilages
I then turned off UAC but still have the same problems

Any ideas appreciated

Cheers

Hi Jan ;) (very contagious)
Anyways - I did try to use my product key to install from the start but it
told me it was invalid - which seems strange as it came from
(e-mail address removed). So I continued installing thinking I could activate
through the system control panel.

Any ideas

THanks

Mike :-)

Hi Mike :-)

When you installed Vista, did you enter the product key Microsoft sent you
or leave it blank?

See the information here and see if it helps.

Hi Mike :-)

What version are you trying to install? There are several versions in the
download, but, the product key will *only* work with the Ultimate version.
If you tried to install any other version it won't work.
