You can reset your Windows Vista activation by performing the following:

1. Click on the Start button and in the Start Search box type in: slui.exe 4

2. Press the Enter key on your keyboard.

3. Select your Country.

4. Follow the instructions for phone activation.

5. Once completed, restart your computer.

i had already activated vista with previous hardware but on the same
computer, so this computer had different hardware previously
 
When the activation dialog appears (whether you use Carey's method or not),
you need to select the option to activate by phone. Your hardware change has
triggered the activation process, and the only way to resolve it is to phone
in and receive a new activation code.
