I just installed RC1 legit copy from MSDN website. I have a valid key issued
from Microsoft. It prompts me telling me I have 3 days to activate. I click
on activate online now and it goes through sucessfully. The status changes to
Activated like it should. When I reboot the pc it unactivates itself and
prompts me with the 3 days to activate message. How can I stop this, it is
rather annoying
 
The simplest way is to reinstall. There was a blog by the Vista team about
a fix about six months ago but reinstallation also works.
 
I can't seem to locate a downlod link... can someone help me out? Also, when
you say reinstall... are you talking about a reformat and reinstall or just a
repair reinstall like right over the top?
