| Windows 7: Dell preinstalled Win7 pro fails genuine authentication check. WTF. |

Dell preinstalled Win7 pro fails genuine authentication check. WTF. Hi!
Just when I was about to download XP-mode and virtual pc the micro$oft site recognised my system to be non-genuine. Now this is, by all accounts, a load of bull$h!t - the computer is less than 5 months old and came with the system preinstalled.
Still the question of further action remains. That's totally unacceptable that a completely valid and legal copy is recognised as non-genuine.
Furthermore - oh what an irony - my previous computer running pirated windows never had the issue.. I'd really hate to resort to piracy again just to use my completely legal copy of the software to its full extent.
MGADiag log is as follows, thanks for the help! Code: Diagnostic Report (1.9.0027.0):

And going on funnier and funnier.
Downloadable genuine validation tool for virtual pc standalone download worked like a charm..
But there's still the question of XP-mode. I'd really prefer not to use tpb.se to update a legal copy of windows.. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Precision M4600 OS Windows 7 pro OEM x64 (Dell preinstalled) CPU i7 2860QM Memory 8Gb Graphics Card Quadro 2000 2Gb Sound Card onboard Monitor(s) Displays 15,6" built-in Screen Resolution 1920*1080 Keyboard backlit Mouse Logitech M705 PSU like a brick Case beautiful Internet Speed 10/10 at home, 3,5Mbps HSDPA over the phone. |

Please attempt validation at www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate - what happens?
If it fails, go to www.microsoft.com/genuine/diag - follow any correctie action, and attempt validation again.

The 0x80072EFD error indicates a connection problem -
This is probably due to either malware or the residues of an AV.
What AV is currently installed - what other AVs have EVER been installed (including the one pre-installed by the manufacturer)??
Are you using a third-party firewall?

Are you using a third-party firewall?
What other security software is in place? Eset Smart Security 5 (includes both AV and firewall) has been doing the job from the beginning - I specifically refused any pre-installed software except the OS itself
I checked the firewall and sure it was blocking access to validation.sls.microsoft.com.. Well, go figure.. 
Probably blocked access forever by mistake instead of allowing it.
Also, unblocking the address solved the issue.
