I have a problem. I need to activate windows and i want
to do it over the internet but it says that it can't
initiate a connection and that i may not have the correct
settings to even browse the internet yet here i am
sending a post in this newsgroup. Can anyone help me
please?
 
If you can't activate over the internet then you will
have to do it by phone. Start the activation wizard -
Start/All Porgrams/Accessories/System tools/Activate
Windows. Folow the wizard through to activate by phone -
this is a free phone number. The first thing that will
happen is the wizard will generate an activation number.
What you need to do is dial the free phone number (the
wizard application will ask what country you are in and
then supply you with the relevant telephone number). When
you get through to the activation centre you will need to
tell them the activation number xp generated - hence you
need to be in front of your pc at the time of calling.
Next the activation centre will give you another code
number which you need to type into the space provided in
the activation wizard. Once you have typed in this code
and press the relevant buttons your copy of xp should
activate.

Hope this helps
