Default "Activate Now" Nothing Happens

Hi,

I've got 1 day left before automatic autorisation. I tried to use the
Activate now thing, but nothing happens. Will this be a problem? I have an
always on ADSL connection, and the net is working 100% fine, so thats not the
problem.

Cheers
S

I have seen this same problem on Vista Beta 2. I had to upgrade to RC2 to get
the system to activate.

What version of Vista are you running?

Hi,

I'm running RC1. But as soon as I posted this thread I tried clicking it
again, and of course this time it worked. The previous 30 clicks didn't.
