| 646905 | 2008-03-06 20:34:00 | My laptop which has been running a geninune activated version of XP refused to log on this morning, quoting that i needed to activated (which i did about 3 months ago) i havent done anything illegal, and was wondering what on earth could cause this to happen? It wouldnt be join/leaving a domain....which is the only thing i did, but i did restart the machine yesterday after that and it worked fine, no activation issues saying i hav x amount of days. Help much appreciated Aidan :thanks |

| 646907 | 2008-03-06 22:22:00 | There is a virus thats doing the same thing so I suggest you post a HJT log and it can be removed. | Pancake (6359) | ||
| 646908 | 2008-03-07 06:27:00 | I had this problem too, but I got it fixed at a computer shop. You should go to your nearest computer shop.:clap | mathsgood (13356) | ||
| 646909 | 2008-03-07 07:05:00 | Have you tried to reactivate it again and see what happens ? Pancake ( post #3) is right - there are a few bugs around that can make Windows say that. The hard Drive may need to be removed and be cleaned by using the following software - Spybot from my sig,Superantispyware (http://www.superantispyware.com/) , Also what Antivirus do you have ?? |

| 646910 | 2008-03-08 00:19:00 | If the BIOS date / time somehow goes back BEFORE XP was activated can trigger the re-activation, usually a dying CMOS battery causes this. | ughnz (8297) | ||
| 646911 | 2008-03-09 21:11:00 | A/V Avast! Pro 4.7. Still having an issue, i guess its off to M$ i go.....reactivation gives me that "this is already activated" msg weird | aidanmaz (7180) | ||
