Alright, I have a family 3 pack upgrade license and discs for Windows 7 Home Premium. I just put my brother in law's computer together yesterday and got it up and running with my 64-bit disc of Home Premium (clean install), and, as expected, it's giving him 30 days to activate. I didn't want to give him any of my licenses (because I'm a greedy bastard like that. Also, they're already used on my own machines at home), so I told him he's got 30 days to buy a Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade license.
All was fine until today - he told me he got a "this Windows is not genuine" popup and it's asking him to activate right now. How is that possible? I completely skipped even putting in a license key for him after install, so he should have 29 left to activate. At least, that's my understanding.
Any info would be good. Thanks!
