Not running Genuine Windows with 0x8004FE21
On a Dell PC (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit), I had a hard drive failure. I bought an identical size (1 TB) hard drive, restored a backup drive image (Norton Ghost) and successfully booted the PC (after running Windows DVD to repair bootrec.)
Everything is working fine EXCEPT that every day now I get "Not Running Genuine Windows" with 0x8004FE21 error message and of course can't run Windows update either.
I initially updated Dell BIOS and other what I thought were related updates from Dell website. Still same problem.
I contacted Microsoft and they confirmed my COA sticker on PC from Dell is authentic. Still getting message each day.
Any solution short of complete reformat/re-install of Windows 7 Ultimate?
