Message that Windows is not genuine

I have a message in the bottom right of my office that my copy of Windows 7 is not genuine, but it is.  This is an update from HP for Vista, which was originally installed when I bought my computer about 4 years ago.   The upgrade was part of the purchase transaction in time.  When I try to enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit SP1 valid I used initially to install the program, I get an error message.   What can I do to fix this?  Thank you.

    I bought my Dell computer about 18 months ago with Windows 7 pre-installed. For 16 months, I used it without a problem. Lately, however, I get messages burst by saying that I am not genuine Windows.

    When I click on the link of the resolution, its 'resolution' is for me to buy Windows! Why this would happen to me? I feel persecuted, and I did nothing wrong!

  • Get the message saying Windows is not genuine

    Hey,.

    The computer is maybe about two years old and it came with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed. Yesterday a box emerged telling me my copy of Windows is not genuine. I followed the link and tried the validation thing, but it's on this page for centuries now. I run ESET NOD32 antivirus, Malwarebytes, Super Antispyware and Spybot and nothing but cookies tracker was found on one of them. The only thing linked windows that I've messed around with lately has been uninstall Windows Office. Don't think that this would have caused a screw to the top, but who knows. No idea what could be causing this and how to solve?

    Thank you.
