What happens if you never activate vista where it says windows activation?

You get locked out after 60 days, I believe.

Then you would need a install disk to wipe over your invalid version.

if you don't activate windows within 30days. it will not allow you to access the computer again. you will not be able to use the computer unless you get a cd-key.
Then you can only evaluate the software for 60 days. After 60 days, you cannot use the software unless you'll enter a valid cd key then activate it through the net or phone.
