Reboot to Safe Mode:
Reboot tapping F8 each second.
Select Safe Mode at the menu

Start/Run
Type "regsvr32.exe regwizc.dll" ENTER
Type "regsvr32.exe licdll.dll" ENTER

Reboot.
Activate again
Reboot

Otherwise since the computer is new, contact the manufacturer for warranty
support.

Did you try given Compaq HP a phone call ? If its a new computer you should
be cover under warranty and , I would believe they would probably provider
30 days free tech support , I would give them a call and explain your
situation
