Windows 7 Activation Failed


After installing Win7 Enterprise at work, I was getting activation failures. Message says DNS Name does not exist, but it turns out, that's a misleading error.

As usual, Google had the answer, based on at least this post.

Computer, Properties, Change Product Key.

Re-enter the same product key used during install, and then try activation again.
