Validation..

[DevilsAdvocate]

So I just put 1GB of Kingston memory into my system and now windows need validating again..its giving me the product key has been used too many times thing now and to call up Microsoft. I'm all out of credit and don't have a landline, if I reinstall windows will it work when validating next time?

I've had this problem before with this key and phoned them up for a new one. I've used this key since then tho to install windows with and its worked ok!..now its stopped =\

Somewhat odd circumstances, either get some credit for your mobile or if your connected to the net, how do you not have access to a landline? If it doesn't validate now I doubt its going to with a fresh install either, I don't see what else you can do other than phone MS.

Reinstalling won't solve your problem, as its recorded on their servers. They most likely won't have changed your product ID, but just given you an activation code.

My best advice? Get some credit.

My dad's gonna call them from work tomorrow, have wrote down that massive long number for him and will leave it in his hands. Cheers guys.

I don't have a landline because my mum had the phone cut off, costing too much money..
