    are you sure of what you trying to say or you just want me to feel the guilt?
    here is an info, my pc had a legal windows copy but the desktop failed in what is called black desktop, and since I cannot reach my IT dept for installing the LEGAL copy again cause I'm in a remote location, I've installed another copy

    so in CLEAR words, if I installed windows 7 ultimate again will that be fixed or you don't know or not sure
    and thank you for all your none stop talk about how to install windows (which I've been installing since win98)

    I already told you what I had to say. Put it back the way you had it while the bitlocker was functioning and see what happens. And please try not to be so snippy.:)

    If you`ve been installing since 98, you shouldn`t be having these issues. A little research goes a long way.

    thank you
    if you were in my position when I have very valuable data on that drive I cannot access and this gentleman is only trying to say if the windows copy is genuine or not!!
    anyway
    do you think if I installed the same win7 ultimate copy will help me or what you think?

    That`s what I have said twice now. There is only 1 way to find out. What are you waiting for.

    If you had very valuable data on the drive you should have not been messing with the system in the 1st place..... agreed ?

    Good Luck :)

    Since its a fresh installation, you may need to turn on Bitlocker again:

    Maybe I have been misunderstanding the whole thing. Let me list my understanding
    1. Using Windows 7 Enterprise that is maybe legal. Then wanting to try another Windows 7 that maybe legal.
    2. Trying to decrypt a hard drive that may belong to the OP.
    3. A person that can spend days posting here but can't find time to get in touch with theri/there IT Department.
    4. OP has been given instructions on how to install a legal copy of Windows 7 and the reasoning for doing so and for what ever reason doesn't.
    5. The OP has been giver instructions on the proper method of getting into a decrypted hard drive. Of course if the OP has the proper password/code. For some reason hasn't followed them.
    6. This has been requested and not received.
    Windows Genuine and Activation Issue Posting Instructions
