Windows Server 2008: “Activation fails when you try to activate Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 over the Internet”

run SLUI in elevated command prompt

SLUI 2 - run activation in System Notification area SLUI 3 - change activation key SLUI 4 - use the automated telephone system (when disabled, the activation key is probably wrong)
