"This copy of Windows is not activated?

Our office has crashed to? virus? Back at the plant level. Desktop did not come with a recovery for XP Professional disk. Recovery disc of "Notebook", then was able to install XP w/Service Pack 2, I had previously bought from Best Buy. System would not accept the 'code' of XP discs, so I had to use the 'code' on the desktop (Code belonged to the XP Professional)

Thought everything was OK until the next day received a notification "this copy of Windows is not activated. In order to hold an appropriate license, this copy of Windows must be enabled.
Whatever that means & what is my next step? I looked in the "Add/Remove Programs" to see if both XP & XP Professional installed and cannot see each other.  But I see "2007 Microsoft Office System" that I had downloaded as an "advantage" of my work: Paychex, Inc..
Help, please!

    After a restart/virus scan (after the large recent Windows Update Microsoft), I see on the background one right part of my screen:

    I looked at the system screen and it shows only: Windows is activated.

    I ran Microsoft Genuine Diagnostics tool, and it shows:

    Don't know what the issue is here?  Does anyone know a fix for this?  I would rather have not shut down the system after 30 days of work!
    Thank you!

    According to the report that you have posted, you should not see a non-genuine problem - the report is clean.

    If you are indeed to see a non-genuine notification, then is that from time to time, or is this all the time?

    If it is present only from time to time, you have a race condition - and those can be a nightmare to solve, because they disappear as soon as you look at :) They are often caused by antivirus programs in conflict with other programs running

    If it is there all the time, then try the following.

    Vista license store is perhaps damaged or its data can be ruined somehow. Please try the steps below to re-create the store with the correct data.

    (1) open an Internet browser window.

    (3) find the CMD.exe file
    (4) make a right click on CMD.exe and select "Run as Administrator"

  • After that my PC froze, then restarting one second BIOS has been activated, now I get the Message: this copy of Windows is not genuine.

    Hello

    My PC froze because of the power failure. A to stop by pressing the power button for 8 seconds.

    After I turn on the PC, I got a message that the BIOS has been altered.   Since I have a motherboard Gigabyte with dual BIOS, he turned off the second BIOS.

    After the PC is returned to the Windows desktop, the background changed to black with the text in the right corner:

    "Windows 7"

    'Build 7601'

    "This copy of Windows is not genuine."

    I know this is true because I buy a commercial version of Windows 7 Ultimate edition of Microsoft. I guess that Windows detects the second BIOS as a different system.

    I restarted the computer, then Windows activated by itself. Under the Control Panel, he showed that he was authentic.

    For two weeks and the "activate Windows now" are back. "Requires a change in hardware or driver will allow you to activate Windows again." "Click on the message to start activation."

    The context has changed to black with the text in the right corner:

    "Windows 7"

    'Build 7601'

    "This copy of Windows is not genuine."

    I try to type the key to packing, that it does not work.

    Any ideas?

    Windows license Type: customer KMS
    The Windows OS version: 6.1.7600.2.00010100.0.0.004
    Your copy of Windows 7 uses KMS licenses, which requires he reactivates the licence every 180 days (6 months) by connecting to the KMS host computer. The KMS host is usually hosted on the domain in your workplace where the license was issued. Reactivation can be done by authenticating to the field of work (log in) or VPN to your network.

    > How can I get a copy?
    If your laptop was initially shipped with Win7 preinstalled and you want to now order original Toshiba Recovery disk for your laptop that you can do it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
    >... where I can find a product key that I use to activate windows?
    You can not find it. I put t understand your question. If you use OS Toshiba you n t need activation code, but if not you and if pre-installed OS is installed with the installation of Microsoft disk you need to pay for a valid license.

    All the time, you're in the magic circle. You always ask the same question, but somehow, you don t read what other people write here. Please read another thread - http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=262518
