Cannot activate Windows Vista

I installed windows vista without a product key in the beginning


So I put the key but it said Error Code: 0xC004E003

You can reset your Windows Vista activation by performing the following:

1. Click on the Start button and in the Start Search box type in: slui.exe 4

2. Press the Enter key on your keyboard.

3. Select your Country.

4. Follow the instructions for phone activation (no charge).

5. Once completed, restart your computer.

6. Then visit: http://www.microsoft.com/Genuine/ and click on "Validate Windows".
