O.P. Vista is stupid!
I had installed the RTM version of Vista and installed SP1 as well. However the BIOS Patch doesn't work with SP1 so I figured what the hell, I will buy it legit for once.

So while a friend was down in Seattle at a Microsoft Conference I had him pick up Vista Ultimate w/ SP1 for me from the Microsoft Store (significantly cheaper than any retail store).

However using the product key in the box I get this:

quote:
---------------------------
Invalid product key
---------------------------
The following failure occurred while trying to use the product key:



Code:

   0xC004F033



Description:

   The Software Licensing Service reported that the product key is not allowed to be installed. Please see the eventlog for details.


---------------------------
OK

I loath Vista right now...
