Windows 7 build 7601 this copy of windows is not genuine HELP!!!

Please can I ask for everyone however well-meaning, to butt out of the thread, except for the OP??

The error message in the original post is one which tends to indicate multiple problems - and without a certain amount of peace, things are going to get worse, rather than better (and there's a distinct possibility that the only solution will be a reinstall as it is!)


Gaz
Please post a new MGADiag report.
Please alos follow the instructions in Windows Update Posting Instructions and post the data from that.

With a little luck, this will give us enough to work with to identify the problem, and start to find a solution.

Hahahaha...HILARIOUS!!

Noel i know you are obviously well qualified in this field , but just answer me this...how on earth did you ever get to where you are if the guy who is better qualified than you kept telling you to butt out....as your aware by helping others you learn yourself? I dont think i offered any bad advice...did i?

Im now very interested in the solution, which will help me help others, but I think the solution was what i said originally...that its an Enterprise copy and maybe not a Genuine copy or the guy is trying to use the default product key to activate. My next step was to advise a re-install because his product key, product hash and product ID is used in 3 other posts on the internet by 3 different posters, hence my thinking is not genuine or default key. Thats my theory and im entitled to it.....if im wrong then great......I will learn and be better.

So am i allowed to help on this forum or not?

Sorry...i will now "Butt-out" and hopefully you can find a solution.

Cheers

Dave

Hi Dave,

Although I can't answer the questions directed at Noel, I can try and clear some other things up. Looking at a few things in the MGADiag log:

Windows Product Key: *****-*****-73CQT-WMF7J-3Q6C9

This is an HP OEM product key, not the default key. I'm not entirely sure where you're theory about the default key comes from, but it isn't the case :)

Windows Product Key Hash: KaFG+RmurcM3ZxzWyfEP9WtPUJw=

You'll see this in other threads because OEM keys are the same on many computers of the same manufacturer, the unique part is stored on your computer in the form of a SLIC table (one of the BIOS ACPI tables)

Windows Product ID: 00359-OEM-8992687-00010

The first 5 characters of this are language dependent, but any PID of the form XXXXX-OEM-8992687-00010 is for Windows 7 Home Premium on HP computers.

Windows License Type: OEM SLP

You won't see Enterprise versions of Windows with OEM SLP activation :)

Product Name: Windows 7 Home Premium

Doesn't look like enterprise to me!

Office Status: 109 N/A

This error simply means that an unsupported version of Office is installed on the computer, where MGADiag can't clarify the activation state of the product. MGADiag doesn't support 2010 or 2013, it only supports up to 2007.

Licensing Data-->
On a computer running Microsoft Windows non-core edition, run 'slui.exe 0x2a 0xC004F012' to display the error text.
Error: 0xC004F012

Here lies the error :) As you've probably worked out, MGADiag logs are Noel's forte and he probably knows more about MGADiag logs than the rest of the SF members put together! If you look at Noel's previous threads with these sort of errors, you'll see the complexity of the problem and hopefully you'll understand why it's best if only one helper is around for this. I do see your point about never learning if you can't practise though, so I urge you to read through Noel's MGADiag tutorials (I'll come to them later) then, when you're at an acceptable standard (only you can be the judge of this), then start helping out. That's just my opinion though, I'm not here to boss you around or anything, I just want to teach you a few things and hopefully point you in the right direction.

OEM Activation 2.0 Data-->
BIOS valid for OA 2.0: yes
Windows marker version: 0x20001
OEMID and OEMTableID Consistent: yes
BIOS Information:
ACPI Table Name OEMID Value OEMTableID Value
APIC HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
FACP HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
SRAT HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
HPET HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
MCFG HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
SLIC HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
OEMB HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
SSDT HPQOEM SLIC-CPC
SSDT HPQOEM SLIC-CPC

HP SLIC table.

So in conclusion, we have a HP computer, with a HP OEM product key (for Home Premium), with a HP SLIC table that was activated well after the Windows 7 release date. The chances are, it's legit :) But one thing's for sure, it's definitely not a default key or an Enterprise version of Windows 7.

Hope this explains a few things for you.

I don't know if you have access to the VIP forum yet? If you do, read through Noel's tutorials on MGADiag and you'll be up and running in no time:

https://www.sevenforums.com/windows-genuine/

You might not have enough posts to view that forum though, so stick around and reap the rewards! Perhaps someone could clarify the entry requirements for the VIP forum for me please?

Hey,
Thanks Tom for that...it did explain a lot.....and made sense....like i said if im wrong then thats good....I meant no disrespect to Noel as i see he knows his stuff after reading his posts....very impressive stuff....thats why hes a guru and im not :)....he may just well have a laugh over this and gain a Padawan or he may kick my butt.

I was obviously incorrect and will leave these problems to the experts like yourself and Noel until such time as im Qualified to fix such problems, good news for Gaz tho.

So Sorry Noel.....go easy on me...huh? Im on that learning eager curve...feel free to give me the hairy side of your hand

Thanks again Tom...Peace

No problem - it's just that like I said, this particular problem is one that haunts my nightmares, as sometimes it's simple to fix, and sometimes I never manage to get to the cause, and end up having to recommend a repair (or even clean) install.

I welcome assistance, as a rule - the more people who can read these reports, the better - but it is important to have a grounding first, before making statements that are at best misleading :)
I suggest that you read the Windows Genuine subforum posts in the VIP forum if/when you have access - they will give some of the background.
Unfortunately, there are no official guides to reading the reports - what I know I've learned the hard way from reading over 25000 reports, and playing with my machines to try and repro some of the problems is see.
