    I live in Abu Dhabi UAE, & I purchased a genuine Windows 7 (with activation restrictions to the Middle East and Africa) software and installed it on my laptop. But when I try to activate it there is an error message saying my product Key can be entered in some countries & that I should try & validate it in the country I purchased the product from. I have installed the 64bit DVD.

    Any Advice Please???

    Thanks!!!
