Hello Bruce,

Try out the following:

Phone Activation system
================================================
1. Click the Start button, type "SLUI.EXE 4" (without the quotation
marks) in the search box, and press “Enter”.
2. Select the neatest location, and click "Next".
3. Please click "Continue" when the User Account Control dialog-box
appears.
4. The Windows Activation will generate a toll-free phone number. And
the installation ID will be displayed in the following format:
xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx – xxxxxx –
xxxxxx
5. Call the number to activate Windows.

Let me know how it goes!
