Did you run the activation as administrator? And what exactly was the error?

[Walter Roberson]

You might possibly not have given the correct user name when you activated it. It has to be your windows user name, not your Microsoft Live user name.

Have you tried looking through the Install, Activation and Startup page? Many common errors appear there.
