    My m1330 has been working perfectly since I received it in August. This morning, I turned it on and tried to log in. After the Welcome screen, I got a popup that said "The Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed is invalid for activation" and three options, Access your computer with reduced functionality, Type a different product key, and Contact Dell to resolve this problem.
    I already called xps support, who told me to call microsoft. They didn't help and told me to call dell...

    Anyone else ever have this problem? I really need to use this laptop for school

    edit: now i realize i should have posted this in the windows forum... mods?
