January 5, 200719 yr Alright guys i have genuine windows which like us all i hate to have to call Microsoft to reactivate when i perform a fresh install of windows. But on my last install after i activated windows i copied the following registry keys... [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents]"OOBETimer""LastWPAEventLogged"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]"CurrentBuild""InstallDate""ProductId""DigitalProductId""LicenseInfo"I then imported them into a fresh install that was not activated and as soon as the keys where imported my windows was activated... it was awesome. Its seems to me a too good to be true fluke.. thoughts people? someone else try this?

January 5, 200719 yr If you don't have a Royalty Customer motherboard (BIOS), then this might also work.
January 5, 200719 yr The only key you need to import is...HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents]"OOBETimer"The others make no difference.
January 5, 200719 yr Author if it is so simple then why are there huge posts trying to resolve the issue?
