I purchased a computer with Vista Home Premium pre-installed on it.
I've reformated this computer at least a dozen times and each time the
activation was automatic. The last time I formated it didn't activate by
itself and I had to click the button that tells you to activate and it
activated sucessfully. After closing the tab and looking ten minutes later it
was not activated. I clicked the activate button again and it activated. I
then restarted the computer and checked the status and it still read
activated.
Is there a known issue with the Vista activation process that I should be
concerned with?
And my last question is should I have my computer plugged into the internet
when each time I format with a new Vista install for that activation to work
properly?
Thank you.
