Despite selecting the option to activate FSX when installing I receive a Windows page when launching FSX telling me that activaton is required. It then launches for a limited time only.When I try to follow the instructions in the Windows page I enter the product key numbers but continue to be told that they are incorrect.Any help would be appreciated.Cliff

last option would be finding the number for microsoft support and give them a call.I had to call ms support recently for win7 reinstall activation issues, this proves they are reachable by phone.just google microsoft support phone number for your local regional area.
