Shane Super Moderator Staff member Jul 21, 2010 #2 Have you tried Activating the copy? Right click on "My computer" and right click....go down to "Windows activation" and it should say Activate this copy of windows....check it. If it does not activate phone microsoft up and tell them your product code,they will tell you if its geniune,and if it is get it activated for you .
