Can't Change Bad Win 7 Activation Code

[copout]

Currently, I have two different Dell workstations with the same problem. Both show warnings every 30 minutes or so stating the copy of windows may be counterfeit. Going to Control Panel-System shows Status Not Available and Product ID not Available. There is no button to add an activation code.

Using the command prompt and SLUI generates an error and no screen to activate windows. Using a key finder program turns up the same activation key on both computers (both are on completely seperate networks). A Google search on the activation key shows it is a Dell OEM key.

The Dell website has a fix at http://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/SLN104591/dell-oem-microsoft-windows-7-install-suddenly-becomes--not-genuine--by-windows-genuine-advantage--wga-?lang=EN

The fix described generates another error code 0X20000022.

I use Kaspersky Endpoint 7 and have run the deepest scan offered with no problems found. I have run SpyBot2 and the latest release of MalwareBytes which find nothing.

The MGADiag results are-

Both machines have valid Activation Keys attached and they have not been to a computer shop or other location where anything could have changed. Both machine work fine, save for the annoying windows citing the error and the fact they won't update.

Any ideas on how to get the right activation code back in play would be most appreciated.

Hi Mike,

Looks like you have a bad set of intel RST drivers,
follow this link.
You need the iata.enu set (at the bottom)

Download Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) RAID Driver

REBOOT

run the tool again all of the file mismatches and tampered files should be gone along with the non genuine.
