Yep, its been years apparently. First time I ran into it and its a deal stopper. Try the scaling and resolution changes, you might then get a valid activation screen. Mine was not editable however. I had to use notepad to get the code into something, copy that and try to paste it into a non-editable field. Sounds crazy, it never populated the field, but amazingly did eventually work and then it moved on. 2 hours on support, they couldn't help.
