The upgrade of my hardware invalidate my installation of Windows Vista? How can I solve this problem?
I recently started to get the message "this copy of Windows is not genuine", which is a little disconcerting for me. I have recently (April 20, to be exact) installed Service Pack 2 and I also recently installed new hardware, but everything worked without problem until today. Let me include some details on my system, and also what items of equipment have been replaced:
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit)
Recently replaced hardware: motherboard, RAM, processor, power supply, chassis
As stated, things were aired as easily as they always until today, when I noticed that my office is transformed to a solid black color instead of the wallpaper I had already. Then I noticed an icon in the system tray indicating that I could click it to activate my copy of Windows; When you click on it, I gives me the message "the product key of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium you typed is invalid for activation." I've been running this copy of Windows for four and a half, and it has been installed on the PC that I bought directly from Dell, so I know that it is a legitimate copy. As my Dell OEM chassis has been replaced by a generic box (the new motherboard did fit properly into the exclusive Dell chassis), I do not have the sticker with the information of Windows, so I can't post it. I'll post the MGA information below; any additional necessary information is available, but I don't know what else could be required to post.
Information copied to my Clipboard of the MGA diagnosis tool are the following:

Well, it's a disappointment. If this is the case, it would be possible to purchase a license upgrade to Windows 7, or should I get a full version? I prefer to get the version if possible upgrade from $80 it's cheaper. Cancellation of my driver's license means that it is no longer an option?
"I suggest you buy a Windows 7 license, that Vista is no longer sold."
As I recommended you it to my 1st answer you need to buy a Windows 7 license.
And the reason is that you now don't have a Windows license to upgrade qualification, as your Vista license is void for the reasons I have already explained to you in my previous to this topic answers...
And before you buy a license of Windows 7, follow these steps to check if your hardware and software is Compatible Windows 7.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=20
Check if your specifications are compatible for Windows 7:
"Windows 7 system requirements"
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/products/system-requirements
"Windows 7 Compatibility Center" for software and hardware:
http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx
And the Microsoft Store where you can get an idea of the price of Windows 7:

See you soon.

There is a much more serious problem affecting some users Firefox 25 where the browser stops just do nothing until the mouse is moved again.

I get a message indicating that Windows cannot open blah blah blah and to communicate with MSN and their awareness of the 56 under the butterfly. My problem is HOW in the WORLD contact you MS? I tried and has been achieved here.
I searched the internet for an explanation for what is the problem and a SOLUTION. Of course, all I get are 'quick fix' downloads for $39.99 - which, in my moment of desperation, I fell prey to., of course, he did not - it really did a restore of the system - which, moreover, was the FIRST thing I did.
Someone at - it neither suggests - HOW to solve the problem - or how to get help from MSN?
I just thought of something - if I don't here a control from time to time I don't know if I got a response because I can't get my email to be notified if someone replies to my questions. I am NOT happy!
Thank you!

You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Them or us ask the right sequence of key.

Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

Hello Lope8725,
Looks like you are trying to backup either iCloud or iTunes, but you have found an error on files being unavailable. Can reply you with the exact wording or a screenshot of the message you are getting?
In the meantime, you can solve the problem with either of those two sections depending on whether or not it's iTunes or iCloud:
If iCloud backup could not be completed or if you can not restore
