    Hi everyone,

    First post,

    One of customers has sbs 2011 essentials, its been working great and activated until recently. Its displaying its not genuine, try and activate and it wont display the activation page. Restarted the server a few time and no luck. Been searching the net for answers but no success, any help would be appreciated

    If you have a valid product key i would just ring the local Microsoft activation line, they will be able to fix it, or put you on to Support.

    Why? its not a long call to have them activate it over the phone.. you may not even need to speak to anyone.
