For the first time tonight when I booted my computer I got this message " Since windows was first activated on this computer, the hardware on the computer has changed significally. Due to the changes, windows must be reactivated within 3 days."

I had windows xp for almost a year now and have not changed any "hardware" on my computer. I have read all the posts about activating xp after you have installed it but can not find anything about "reactivating it" after almost a year in use. When I follow the instructions to reactivate it, there is a problem with the activation server. I'm told to try again later. Any help with this is greatly appreciated as always. Thanks
