Tips for how to file a problem report
Here are some things to consider when filing a problem report:
Please file your report as soon as possible after you find a problem. The sooner we hear from you, the sooner we can investigate and try to fix the problem.
Please
provide a brief, descriptive title. The title is the first thing we see when we get the report, so a succinct, clear title will help us effectively identify and prioritize the problem.
Please provide enough detail in the description for us to understand the problem. The more detail you can provide, the better.
Please provide the steps we can follow to reproduce the problem. Any incorrect or missing steps can prevent us from being able to reproduce and address the problem. If you have any supplemental files, screen shots, etc., that will help us investigate the problem, please attach those to your report. Seeing a picture can sometimes help us identify the problem more quickly. -- Andre Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Jeff the problem is that Zach's Vista base is out of date. With the newer build Microsoft is also diableing the built in administrator account as well. So until you go into compmgmt.msc and enable the account you will not be able to log on as the local administrator account.
As
for the activation i know for a long time the activation server were being hammered due to all the requests...so might be worth just retrying.

I contact MSDN in france who say that Beta 2 cannot be activated as it's a trial version....
What will happen in 11 days when the activation grace will expire ?
Any other clue ?

If you look at the details you will notice a time discrepancy of exactly two hours between the creation of the event and the datetime in the schema. My guess is that this is the problem.

MSDN France is smoking some illegal substances (figure of speech, of course).
I am running an MSDN version of Vista Beta 2 and I only activated it 3-4 days after the original installation date. --> So, yes, the MSDN versions do require activation as well.
As for getting it to properly activate: was it a clean install? was it on a clean partition? were there major hardware adjustments/changes between installation date/time and activation attempts?
Submitting a bug report (following Andre's advice in this thread) would be the last option... or re-installing Vista Beta 2 again on a clean/reformatted partition.

Have you tried changing the timezones back to and trying to reactivate? I am just curious where the 2 hour difference comes from.

Hi.
I can confirm this. I had the samme issue untill i removed daemon-tools and then, "BOOM", Windows has been activated.
There are probably more stuff that creates this issue, but D-T was the problem for me.
