I've had Vista for a while and have had no problems with it.
However I recently changed a lot of parts within my system, this meant that i had to re-verify my Vista product key. As I got the copy of Vista from my brothers universit I didnt have the key to hand. So I had to use Vista with continous pop ups of how my software may be counerfit.
These pop ups have just become annoying now, so I got the key off my brother. When I entered it first time i was told that the key was already in use. So i downloaded a utility that un-covered your product key, which gave me the same key as my brother gave me.
Re-enetered it again just incase i'd made a typo and got the same 'key already in use' message.
any help??
