"Your copy of Windows is not genuine. Please validate windows.

Original title: problem with vista

I got my pc 4-5 years of PC World. It came with Vista pre-installed. I had absolutely no problem, until a few days ago.

I turned on my pc and it says that I don't have a genuine copy of windows. Now I get errors arise and do not know how to solve this problem.
As my pc came with pre-installed Vista, I have no disks so I can't reinstall then and I have no idea why he now says is not true.

Any help massively appreciated, thank you.

  • Your copy of Windows is not genuine

    Windows 10 has been automatically downloaded on my computer.  I had heard some disturbing results of this upgrade and was happy with Windows 7.  So, I uninstalled Windows 10.  Big mistake.  Since the uninstaller, I have a permanent message on my screen that my copy of Windows is not genuine. I bought this computer used five years ago in a computer repair shop.  I have no problems with Microsoft update my software for five years until what I uninstalled 10.  Now my computer restarts every 10 minutes.  Fixes for this problem.  I don't know what is my product key.  Thank you for your help in advance.

    To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the diagnostic report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to the desktop -http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
    Once downloaded, run the tool.
    Click on the button continue, after a short time, continue button will change to a copy button.
    Click the copy button in the tool (ignore the error at this stage) and then paste (with r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your message.

  • Windows not genuine Please Help

    I'm having one similar error as the others with the same question. I get a message that my copy of windows is not genuine, but my product key is valid. I think it happened when one of my Raid drives has failed and installed another hard drive. I don't know if it's the source of the problem, but I think it might be.

    Things that I have that might help:

    Windows 7 Re install disc that came with the desktop computer

    A product ID different on the sticker on my desk than what appears in Windows

    I saw in another post that there is a way to diagnose the reason why the error occurs. Here is the paste of the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool.

    Any advice is welcome.

    I had that happen on my laptop once too often, and it turned out that she had nothing to do with Windows authentication. It wasn't a Microsoft problem, but a problem of Intel. The idea is that you said that this occurred immediately after installing a new hard drive. If this new hard drive was over 1 TB, you must go on the Intel site and install the RAID Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) driver which is located at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=23496&ProdId=2101&lang=eng&OSVersion=Windows%207%20%20 * & DownloadType =.

    You can choose one of the two best (most recent).
    If you have 64-bit, you must click on the top (one that says the name of the file: f6flpy-x 64.zip).

    If you have 32 - bit, you would click on the second, (which says the name of the file: f6flpy-x 86.zip).

    Once you install this driver, which should solve your problem.

    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
