Hi,
I was restarting my pc because the keyboard didn't work but the mouse work. Then I got this pop-up box prior to entering the OS saying your copy of windows may not be genuine with two options:Get genuine now and ask me later. There was a 0x0 at the box somewhere. When I said get genuine now, it says your windows is now genuine. Anyone obtaining this as well?
You might also go to the Windows 7 Validation web page and run their validation check ActiveX plugin and see what you get there.
Be sure to do this with IE8 though. Go here to run the check: Genuine Microsoft Software
You can also try this method too.
To validate that Windows 7 is genuine is to click on Start, then type in activate windows in the search box.
If your copy of Windows 7 is activated and genuine, you will get a message that says “Activation was successful” and you will see the Microsoft Genuine software logo on the right hand side.
It has already been activated when I first installed it some time ago. No idea why it happend then.
My copy of Ultimate (from the Redmond company store) did that. I thought it was quite funny that MS could think a copy they sold directly was not genuine.
