My 30 days have expired and I now cannot log into windows till I've activated it. Unfotunately due to the fact that I access the internet via a wireless usb adapter and I haven't configured it to connect automatically, I cannot connect to the internet to activate my copy of windows. What do I do?!? Help Me!!!
P.S I've already tried changing the date in the BIOS and it doesn't work!

If you have a wireless adaptor then you should have a router ( modem router ) that has R45 ( LAN ) sockets , so plug a cable from your router to the R45 socket on your computer, that way it is direct and you should be able to do your set up. Or as the first guy said phone Microsoft UK and you can do it like that .

Dont mess with your bios. Phone microsoft who will give you an activation code, unless the software is a pirate copy, in which case buy a legal version.

If you have a USB wireless, that meant you have a router, and router has LAN ports, so use a network cable to activate.

click on the "key" icon in the system tray and when the window pops up, choose "activate by phone"
