Late Classmate Windows Activation

[JDWorden]

As a rookie team last year we neglected to activate Windows on the Classmate.  Now we get pesky popup reminders at odd intervals.  The reminders appear over the Driver Station and interfere with operating the bot.

Connecting the Classmate to the internet and trying to activate results in a message to contact the System Administrator.  This is a desad end.

Does anyone know how we can accomplish the activation?

Thanks in advance

In the Kit this year, there was a new USB stick for imaging the classmate with this year's software. You should image the classmate with the new image, and then you should be able to connect to the internet and activate.

Thanks.

I believe we have reimaged the Classmate.  I'll do it again just in case.

Thanks a lot.  My bad.  I guess we didn't correctly reimage the Classmate, after all.  No more pesky popups!
