Hey everyone, I need some serious help -


My fiance has had her computer for near two years now, and it's given us
some problems. But everything it has thrown at us, I've been able to fix it
by myself with just a little bit of research. This time, though, it has me
completely stumped and I cannot find anything on the internet.

The computer loads up fine, and gets ready to go into her user account (the
only one on the computer), and it starts to load her profile, but then it
exits back out to the login screen of Windows Xp and gives this error
message:

Windows product activation problem.
A problem is preventing windows from accurately checking the license for
this computer. Error Code 0x80090019.

Does anyone know what I might be able to do to fix this? I would really
like to get this working for her, as she is a freelance artist and has a
number of deadlines approaching.

Any and all help would be much appreciated, thank you. :)
