• I have a message in the lower corner of my screen saying that my copy of windows is not genuine.

  * Original title: product key issue

  I have received a more laptop from a friend and wanted to return to factory settings, because he didn't have the necessary disks, I contacted officials of the laptop with the brand and the model that took place in the origin of vista.  They sent me back discs for windows 7 with a product key, but when I installed it I learned the product key is temporary and would not work. Because the laptop is older, the product key on the back of the laptop is now unreadable.  I now have a message in the lower corner of my screen saying that my copy of windows is not genuine.

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

  S.Erskine

  If it's a temporary product key, your only option is to buy a genuine full license.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

• My Windows 7 is now saying that my copy of Windows is not genuine.

  I bought Windows 7 at Newegg in May.  I woke up this morning and found that my computer was restarted.  Not much, I assumed that he had executed the updates.  During his connection, I get a message that this copy of windows is not genuine.

  I followed the guests, download the WindowsActivationUpdate.exe and he said validation failed and directs me to purchase a Windows license

  Were there an update which pushed the Windows validation?  Is there a solution? I'm not spending $100 + to re-enable some thing that I've already spent $100 + on 3 months ago

  My computer runs for several months; A week ago, my family told me that the machine stated that my installation is not authentic.  As I have already said, the product had been activated months ago, Security Essentials is installed and has been active; all updates had been installed as rerequired.

  I tried to turn it back on and got the error 0x8007000D code; "More information" fits the description "these data are incorrect.  I entered the Product Code and tried that gave the same answer.

  I checked the other responses on this site and was able to identify a solution to this trawl.  I then rang the number of activation of phone service and ultimately refusing to press any button when the voice prompted me and received a person in India. I tried to go into the menu system and after four attempts that ending with the beingdropped of the call, I gave up on that game this call lasted 5 seconds that I asked the young woman at the other end a little louder and the appeal was abandoned.

  I went through the process again.  I'm a young boy who, after registering my name and my number, kept wanting to call me by my first name.  This boy had a strong accent or my ears listen with a strong accent; After that I asked him to repeat what he had said for the umteenth time, the call is dropped.  I tried again, the next boy began to taking me through the details of same there is no trace of call me first!  After going through the activation process, ' it's because you selected "Caps Lock" key has no ' a diagnosis so after stupidly, we went through the process three times, he admitted that he had reached the end of its scenario and said that he passed me to another agent.»  The call transferred correctly and I found myself with a boy with a Central American accent.  After the next through details - 15 minutes, it seems Microsoft is unable to transfer information from one country to another - this youth said that I have called the wrong country Chad, and that I would have called the number in the United Kingdom.  After that I owe her aknowledge and apologizing for his three errors; that he assumed that I had called directly, the second that he did not ask his self, his client, what number I had composed, the third that he had forgotten that I told him that I had been transferred from the India Call Center. I asked to speak to his manager, he said he would transfer me and the call dropped.

  Once more the breaking - and this time I'm back to a young woman in India.  I asked a number of folder I was having to repeat the same information, she refused and after I had as my my agin telephonenumber, she said that there was no record of my previous calls.  An hour and a half of my life sank without a trace.  At this point I remembered, why I have cleared my desk of the sharp impliments and heavy objects; the risk of self-injury and violence to others must be reduced.  Finally, the young girl generated a file number for me, 1187937351 and then told me that the technical team of the United Kingdom ends at 18:00.  So, not quite a 24/7company, eh Microsoft?

  I need now start the process again tomorrow unless someone reading this can mount an illumination.  My Vista installation had worked; It now States that it is "not true." I can't turn it back on.

  Additional information:

  Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:

  (A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

  (B) COST SLP: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or at the bottom, [or in the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but must be used only in certain situations (for example, if the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone. (Note: all manufacturers that use the SLP OEM system are bound by contract to include a certificate of Authenticity sticker (COA), which has a COA SLP key, on the computer)
