    Activation problems

    A few people have mentioned that when they have had problems activating Vista, the Microsoft helpline has given them a new key. This means that they have an operating system with no Product key sticker. The sticker inside my box clearly states that it is proof of license, so I'm concerned that people are losing their proof of License.

    Backup Boogaloo, you know it makes sense to do.

    I think you may be misunderstanding Philgo - all they do is give you an activation code that you have to type in. The product key itself stays the same as the one on the sticker.
