Windows Vista Software from TechNet Software Registration Problem - Followup

The website problem outlined in a prior blog post has been resolved.  This issue was resolved by extending the the deadline for obtaining your key from the registration site www.registerwindowsvistasp1.com. If it still does not work, try deleting the cookie for the site or do the registration from another computer.  The new expiration date for obtaining your install key is the end of December 2008.   Please write a comment to this blog if you continue to have a problem with registration.  I am very sorry for the problems you have experienced and I hope this resolution is acceptable to all. 

PS.  I personally tried a code that did not work yesterday and it did work today!

I registered a copy of Vista that was given out at the TechNet events and tried to install Vista x64

Oh, Man.  I just saw this two days late (Jan 2).  Is there any other way to obtain a code or have the deadline extended?  Please!!!

Please try to get the key through the website. Let me know what message you get if it does not work and I will look into it.  The best way to contact me is through an email to my blog at http://blogs.technet.com/danstolts/contact.aspx I also have a newer post on this topic at http://blogs.technet.com/danstolts/archive/2008/12/16/don-t-forget-to-get-your-vista-product-activation-key.aspx

Uh oh, I'm in the exact same boat as David Roach. Registerforwindowsvistasp1.com website does not pull up anymore. What a bummer. Is it curtains for us?

Hi Guys,

Not sure if there is anything I can do.  Please email me with your contact information (including your email and the email address you want to use to register the key) at http://blogs.technet.com/danstolts/contact.aspx I will see if there is anything that I can do. If I can use your code to get an install key. Please do not post this information to my blog comments.  You should email it directly.  Unfortunately I do not think there is anything I can do but I will try. I do not want to set your expectations that I can fix it because probability of success is VERY low!
