What happens fairly often is that a Windows update will cause BIAB to think it's on a "new" computer. Updates sometimes change a UUID that Band-in-a-Box uses to identify a computer, which suddenly makes the verification fail. Not usually a problem - reactivating does the trick.

We've been working with Torq2 directly to solve this issue. In this particular case, reactivating didn't do the trick, nor did removing Ticket files or offline activation, so we've manually generated the activation files for him and provided instructions on where to put the files - hopefully that'll work! Torq2 is away for a bit, but when he returns we hope to get some good news.
