I have upgraded my computer since buying Vista, new motherboard, RAM, CPU and
its now saying that my product key is in use? How do I go about solving this
issue as the support pages are hard to follow. Vista Ultimate was bought from
Overclock.co.uk and I have all the documents to prove its a genuine version
so I do not wish to have replies questioning its integrity.
 
If you have upgraded hardware since installing Vista, use the phone
activation process..

The key is already in use by you, for your 32 bit install.

Activate by phone.

I am having the same issue, and all I did was overclock my CPU.

When I attempted to use the phone system, I was directed to an operator with
a horrid accent after punching in my 9 groups, then hung up on. I tried
again, and this time I was disconnected AUTOMATICALLY. Is there a trick to
doing it, or am I screwed out of $200 because I bought OEM?

This is seriously hindering my frags.
 
Charge them $10 a call until they get their selective heads out of their ass to write a decent text based chat system to hand off the key so you don’t have to listen to foreigners butchering the English language.
New fee's the same retarded system that didn't work before. Come on MS!

No trick, just keep calling until you get someone that you can understand.
