is this copy legit? if it is then call microsoft and have them activate it for you. if it isnt then you need a better crack. and what hardware did you change and have you installed vista on any other computers?

that is weird. just call microsoft support and tell them. if it is a legit version then they will reactivate it for you. and if you dont want to do that there are many cracks for vista out there.
