...yet I got this message when I logged in today:
---------------------------
Windows Product Activation
---------------------------
Since Windows was first activated on this computer, the hardware on the computer has changed significantly. Due to these changes, Windows must be reactivated within 3 days.
Do you want to reactivate Windows now?
---------------------------
Yes No
---------------------------
Very strange. Any ideas?
(Tip: you can capture the text of many Windows dialogs into the clipboard by pressing Control-C while viewing them. The above example came that way. Couldn't use printscreen while logging in, tho, or I'd've shown the dialog too.)
