Reinstall OEM ?
HI,
After trying to reinstall Vista OEM after a format and then not being able
to reactivate ( since sorted thanks to Microsoft)
I am wondering how you go about reinstalling a OEM version after things
start to crash ?
From past experience with Windows, I have had to reinstall about once a year
when it gets bloated and bogged down.
TIA

I got a new Dell E521 with an AMD 64 X2 and 4GB of RAM.

when I try to install the 64-bit system, it "blue-screens" with either 0x7E
or 0xa. Acc. to DELL support this is because the installation does not
contain necessary drivers.

Random Deactivations?
So, I've gone through extensive troubleshooting, both on my own, and with
Microsoft reps, and the problem still seems to be happening. The problem is
that every now and then, windows has gotten into the habit of deactivating
itself when I restart my computer. I'll do a restart, and windows will come
up with the window requiring me to activate or I can't use windows. No
