• This copy of windows vista is not genuine

  I have a gateway laptop with vista (tm) home premium. . Things on my system are pretty messed up so I did a clean install to fix every thing. It ran good for a while but now its asking to activate windows. I put the activation code in and now it will not accept it. He says now this version of windows is not genuine and gives the 0xcoo4e003 error code. I do not understand why a clean install would do this kind of problems. IM lost what to do now.

  So I'm afraid that isn't true.

  Since the machine has no COA sticker at all, you will need to purchase a new license for Windows - perhaps, your best bet is to wait until the system shows as non-authentique and then use the option to get real.

• The copy of Windows Vista is not genuine and will not accept the product key.

  Original title: my copy of Vista has just decided that it is more authentic and does not accept my product key. Why?

  Can you re - activate my product key or simply give me a product that works properly & constantly?

  If you mean that you can not activate automatically, try to do it manually:

  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain the situation, but it's the same PC and only installed on this PC.  They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista.

• Service Pack 2 Build 6002: This copy of Windows Vista is not genuine.

  Hi, I bought my Dell XPS 420 is about 2 years. April of 2008. But recently I got this error where it asks for an activation code and activate Windows now or later. I also got a black screen as a background, I can't use the internet, I can't use the Windows Update or system restore for that matter.

  Many drivers would be stopping itself, like Windows Explorer when I tried to start it...

  I also have a blue error screen, where he would say: "a fatal error has occurred", and the computer will turn off automatically. Sometimes, I can't even on the homepage where I would like to connect on...

  I use Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium if it matters.

  If this was due to the installation of SP2, Microsoft offers free support at: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034&st=1&wfxredirect=1.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
