    Trouble is you are using a Release Candidate version of Vista. I'm guessing you would have to buy a new license, and install the new key onto the machine using a key changer application. Call Microsoft, and they will help you.

    If the copy of Vista came pre-installed on the laptop then you won't have to buy anything.
    Your version of SP1 is the release candidate though. It's not the full final version and has a time limit. You need to go into Control Panel-->Programs/features and uninstall SP1.

    Be thankful, if it was Toshiba or Sony you get a restore DVD that wipes your drive back to factory install and good bye to all your data and settings unless you backed it up.
