Default registration flagging up

hi there. I wonder if you may be able to help.
I have just bought a compaq v6000 with vista premium. every 30 minutes, a window flags up with a registration reminder for compaq products. there are 3 choices, register now, register later, and do not remind me anymore. No matter which one I choose, the window still flags up every 30 mins.
Anyone any ideas?

Your help would be appreciated

well, all i can think of to suggest is:
  • Try again
  • Contact the manufacturer / where you bought it from
  • reformat it (bit extreme)
  • erm
  • throw it out the window

thats all i can suggest lol. someone else might know how to fix it, but i cant think of anything at the moment (sorry).

(p.s. not all of them were serious lol ).
