my windows vista would not bring up meida center so i reinstaled windows
vista and now it will not work without a product activation ... I have
already activated and was working on my computer before i get an error
message...Please help
 
Every time (8, and counting) I have re-installed Vista, I had to activate
it. Vista thinks it is brand new and has not been activated, yet.

Are you not able to activate Vista? If so, what error message are you
receiving? Are you making sure to type the Product Key correctly (sometimes
"B's" look like "8's" etc...)? Have you already used the same Product Key
on ten different computers?
 
Did you start on this page:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/preview.mspx

and go down to the Download Now section and put in your
location to start the registration process so you could get
a key?

If not, then this is how you get a Product Key for the Vista
Ultimate installation and activation. The Vista package has
all the versions of Vista, but the CPP key is only for Vista
Ultimate. If you installed any other version then you will
need to start over and use the key in the beginning.

The is no other way for the CPP version.

You don't get Product Keys from other people. You go
through the registration process to download the image and
you get your key that way.
