Product Activation Error

Hi
I have joined the forum but cannot seem to log in. Anyhow I cannot get my new copy of FSX re-activated. This is especilly irritating as I gave a talk this morning on my time as a Tristar training captain on the aircraft and simulator and wanted to use the Just Flight Tristar to illustrate it.
I think what happened was that I installed and activated FSX OK, then installed Acceleration without realising that needed to be activated as well.In my attempts to sort this out I ended up deleting all and trying to re-install.
I have tried 1 FS_Registry_Repair 2 Editing Registry PartMsg entry 3 Uninstall program
All to no avail - all I get is a 'product activation error' which prevents internet or phone registration.
Any help much appreciated
John

This also works with FSX

Be sure to follow all steps carefully.
If you miss one folder or one line in the registry it won't reinstall properly.

Well I tried this without any luck even after going further into registry. When I run setup whatever I seem to do it always FSX is already installed. Next try Revo Uninstaller Pro. But I hsave no faith that anything other than re-installing windows will work and probably not that.
Still not able to log in despite email to accounts

Revo is good.

Registration problems.
