    What Anti-Virus is installed?


    If KB3004394 is installed, uninstall it, and reboot twice.
    Do a Check for Updates, and install the new version of KB3004394, and any other updates.

    OK - please upload your C:\Window\System32\drivers\etc\HOSTS file.

    Also,

    Open Event Viewer
    click on the Windows logs entry in the left pane to expand it.
    Now click on the Application entry - wait while it loads.
    Click on 'File' in the menu bar and select Save...
    Save the file as Appevt.evtx
    Repeat for the System log
    then zip both, and upload them.

    You never mentioned that you'd been getting non-genuine notifications for more than a month! - what cleared the problem for you?

    You appear to have Daemon Tools installed (or Alcohol 120%) - the sptd driver they use is known to cause major problems. I would uninstall whichever it is, and then run the sptd cleanup from here... DuplexSecure - FAQ and see if that helps at all.

    I don't know why they keep coming up but they have stopped recently, I actually contacted Microsoft support about it but they have said my version is genuine and it must be a bug....

    And I could not find either of the programs installed, could they be under a different name?
    I have however run that link you sent me and will let you know the results later when I am back at my computer.

    There are a number of possible causes of the non-genuine error that you got - if it started in December, then most likely cause was the KB3004394 update, which caused a large number of problems.
    Otherwise, the problems are mostly due to bad HD drivers.

    Once you've had a bit of a play with the system, post back with another set of event logs, and I'll take another look.
