Validation of Windows 7 problem after updates.

For a while now I have had to deal with a validation problem after some updates. I purchased Windows 7 Pro from a reputable computer shop when I was having a major upgrade and they installed it for me. Everything was great until recently. The problem is that I live in Spain and the guy in the shop does not speak English but he can normally see the problem. I took it to him 3 weeks ago when my screen went black and the message came up saying that my Windows was not genuine. He called the Spanish number although it seemed to be automated, but it cleared the problem for a week. After a Windows update one week ago it happened again so I tried to activate using the key on my disc box but it didn´t work. Sorry but I have to use a "Dummies Book" as I am not too savvy when it comes to PC´s and where to look. After looking at Control Panel/System I discovered that the key on my PC is different to that on the box. I validated using that key and it was back to normal until another Windows update yesterday. Same problem but it took me several attempts to get the validation to work. I am aware that at least one of the updates failed yesterday but I feel reluctant to try again or I shall be in the vicious circle again.

I can´t afford to call technical support in the UK and I don´t understand them in Spain. Can you help please?

I have a desktop PC not a laptop and the sticker is still on the back of the DVD cover and says Windows 7 Pro but none of the other letters and number say edition. On the DVD itself in Spanish it says including Service Pack 1. Sorry, I don´t know what I am looking for. I have checked the label with your link and it certainly looks genuine.

I will try and follow the tutorial to produce the report you need. Thanks

Thank you so much for having a look and finding all okay.

I think you are on the right track as my antivirus software is very sensitive and updates several times a day. it is ESET Smart Security 6. I also have Tune Up Utilities that keeps the PC running smoothly but not sure they like each other.

Not sure what else but the phone company have some on the internet line and presume Microsoft are making me download theirs all the time. Eset is not happy now as one of the windows updates failed yesterday and it wants me to do it again. Reluctant, as this is when the validation problem starts again. I have looked in the update history and the update that it still wants to do is the one that failed 3 times yesterday and is (KB2976627) apparently for Internet Explorer 11 on W7. What would you advise me to do apart from send another report when I get the validation message again.

I did manage to change my black screen back to normal settings yesterday, thank you.

I followed the link and downloaded the file for W7 (all 220MB), ran it and it seems to be a hotfix for an unloadable KB file. Anyway I did it and ran the Windows update again and I think it has installed it. I didn´t see anything about CBS persist Files and I can´s find the windows update log info that you need. Sorry, I feel really dim now after thinking I was following this okay.

If you can talk me through exactly how to get to the files and how to get them on here, I would be grateful.

I did take a look in Explorer C:Windows/Logs and could see CBS persist files but not sure if that is what you want and how to upload. I did try the attachments in the tool bar above but the upload failed. Help Please...

I will try to understand what you mean tomorrow when my brain is a little fresher. Thanks
