    Yes it does appear in the clipboard - but the clipboard is not normally visible to the user.

    To properly analyse and solve problems with Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )

    Once saved, run the tool.

    Click on the Continue button, which will produce the report.

    To copy the report to your response, click on the Copy button in the tool (ignore any error messages at this point), and then paste (using either r-click/Paste, or Ctrl+V ) into your response.

    The copy is put into your clipboard and can be pasted anywhere you like - such as your response to this post :)

    It can also be pasted into an open notepad window so that you can review it before posting.

     

    Noel

    It does not appear in clipboard nor can I do a cut and paste of the report..how can I get the system to copy the report to Notepad instead?

    When I try to activate using the COA product code  I get this message:

    Windows validation in process

    This may take a few minutes, do not navigate away from this page.

    Please Wait

    Please wait...

    Validation in progress

    A few minutes stretches to 30 mins and still tells me PLEASE WAIT

    What do i do to getthis problem solved ?

    Thanks
