Vista will prompt you for your key. Input your key. You ahve a certain number of freebie activations. If you've exceeded that, then Vista will give you the phone number to call for a new key. Takes 2 minutes.

yes, just call in to the number provided, and give them the code that vista spits out, they'll give you a number to punch in and voila, reactivation!
