Genuine Windows validation failure
Hi
Despite my ASUS notebook having the original WIN7 product key sticker on the bottom of it, I keep getting validation failure mesage.
I presume its because I did a hard drive replacement 3 months ago, but my recovery DVD's did not work ( just got stuck halfway through the installation despite me leaving it installing overnight ) when I re-installed Win 7, so I used a genuine win7 disk previously received with a different new PC. I used the right product code ( the one on the sticker on my notebook ) & all went ok.
Now I keep getting the validation failure message & re-inputting the code continues to give a failure message after it tries to validate. If anyone thinks there is a chance this can be resolved without me having to completely re-install I'll send through the MGSdiag report with a new post.
Help appreciated
Cheers
Mike
