Default Activation Woes

Old pc with Windows Vista Home Premium Upgrade died yesterday.

Built new pc and installed Vista from the upgrade disk. Clearly can't
activate it because I have a product key for an upgrade.

Bought a full version of Vista Home Premium. Tried using license key to
activate and am being told I have an invalid product id key (I'm using the
license key given to me from the Digital Locker thing).

Dying to activate and move forward. Any thought would be appreciated.

Aye, I checked those links and no dice. I'd rather not have to go thru the
hassle of reinstalling and would love for the full license to work.

Hi Suryjuto,

You might try doing a phone activation to get your Vista activated
again. This tutorial will show you how to if needed.

Hope this helps,
