Can anybody help me please.

 

I changed over to VISTA from XP MCE SP-2 on the 23rd March 2007. I used Dell's VISTA upgrade DVD but did a double installatin as suggested by Paul Thurratt.

 Now I did not have any problem until now.

 

I today went on the Intel site and upgraded my Chipset to v8.3.0.1013 and Intel Matrix Storage Manager to v7.5..0.1017.

 

Now suddenly I got this message on my screen

"you need window activation within next three days or it will get deactivated"

To activate now clicl ok.

When I clicked ok, I get the following to choose from:

 

"To activates windows you will need another windows vista home premium producy key"

 

->I do not have another windows Vista Home Premium product key and need to buy a new one on line

 

->I have another Windows VistaHome Premium product key and want to type it now.

 

->Use the automated phone system to activate

 

->Contact Microsoft to help resolve this problem.

 

I do not know what to do!! I am very upset and worried.

Can somebody help me please.

Thanking you
