this copy of windows is not genuine go online and resolve now
I have read the articles and no the steps...
I am hestitant resolving online...I simply wanted to supply Micorosoft with a new product key.
My options in control panel/system are go online /or change product key. I elected to produce a new product key. When I give the product key I get "not genuine" which is false because on other computers in our shop I always get that message 'not genuine' and I need to telephone in/ and in all instances my new product keys are accepted. (sidebar we upgraded and/or changed our old Xp computers to Windows 7 pro thus my experience with product keys)
With this computer over the last two years I have made hardware changes and so forth -and the activation was always 'active' as I checked on it now and then. I don't know what happened recently...thus my attempt to use a new fresh product key. I have no option to phone in. I attempted to run slui.exe and slui.exe 4 and nothing happened.
I have a working machine that over the years we have fine tuned it and this nag to activate is troubling in that I don't want 'Online Resolution' messing with our clean system. Just want to surrender to Microsoft a new fresh product key - and get back to work. Thanks for indulging this long note.
