Follow follow the instructions for activating. You will need to phone M$. Since it's genuine they will be able to sort it out with you. You have a sticker on it somewhere that looks like this right?

Or you can shove an ethernet cable in, connected to your router for online activation, much faster =)
Yeah, but he's already online which is why it thinks it's not genuine. It connects to M$'s servers with the WGA check thing and thinks he's a pirate. If he wasn't online this wouldn't happen.Quote:

You have a legal license. Why be a pirate when you can legally have it?Quote:
