    Validation failure after new hdd


    Hi!

    Recently my HDD started giving errors.
    So I replaced my HDD with a new one.
    I copied my entire HDD data to the new HDD, Windows OS included.

    The HDD works fine but since than Windows keeps saying it cannot validate my Windows copy.
    So I download the validation tool, but the tool says my windows version is not valid.

    I have bought my Dell PC with a new Windows license so it should be valid. It always has been.
    Until I had to change my HDD.

    So what can I do to stop these anoying notifications???
