When I start my laptop after a reinstallation of windows XP , I am given a countdown for activating windows, when I go to activate I am being told that it is already activated yet the next day when I start I am given a day less to activate, when the countdown runs out I cannot do anything but reinstall windows, can someone please help me out of this situation.
Thanks in anticipation!
 
If you have a legal copy of windows then call the activation hotline. Microsoft may want you to send them a copy of the Windows COA to prove you own it but other then that it's pretty simple. You can take a picture with a camera and e-mail it to them.

After you try to activate it should give you a number to call. Call that number and it will ikley pass yoru activation threw just fine. I was saying if they want proof you own that copy of Windows you will likely have to send them a picture of your COA sticker. That's the little sticker on your PC that has your Windows XP product key.
