Error This Computer is not running genuine Windows

Question
-
I have a Gateway PC running Windows 7 Home Premium (came preinstalled from Costco). It has been working perfectly for a year, and suddenly I am getting a message saying that "This Computer is not running genuine Windows". I have tried every online solution I can find, and nothing fixes it, including the Microsoft automated solution tools. I also can't do a Windows update, which I suspect is related to this as both problems suddenly happened at the same time. I've done a full system scan for viruses with my Norton, and nothing showed up. This is the results of the Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool:

Hi, thanks for your response. I tried downloading the drivers, but received the following error message: "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software." Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ruth WrightNot good :( it means that your issue is more deep-seated than we can deal with in these forums, and you will probably end up having to do a repair install.I suggest that you go direct to WGA support for assistance -WGA Support can be found here-North America: http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/cu_sc_genadv_master?ws=support&ws=support#tab4

Please let us know if (and how) MS manage to repair the problem without a repair install of the OS - it would be useful for future reference!

Hi just to follow up with what happened...I had 2 online chat sessions on the microsoft support site, neither of which resolved the issue. Both verified that my version of Windows 7 is genuine, and told me it should be working, etc, but nothing changed. They thought it might be a security issue, and gave me a phone number for microsoft...I called, waited on hold for 30 minutes and was cut off. I called again, waited on hold for 51 minutes and finally gave up, realizing that if I reinstalled Windows it would probably be faster. Just to be sure, I scanned my entire system again with my internet security (Norton), went onto their website and performed their "deeper scans", but no viruses were detected. So, I ended up wiping my hard drive and reinstalling Windows 7. Seems to be working fine now. Here's hoping!

Trusted time: 30/12/2011 1:34:10 PMThe set of file mismatches above are typical of one of two causes:-1) a restore from an image backup of the system2) a failed driver updateThe only one for which we currently have a solution is the second.....Installing the Intel Rapid Storage Driverstry downloading and installing them from here -- you’ll need the set for the x64 (64-bit) platform on Win7Once complete, please reboot twice, then post another MGADiag report.Good Luck!

Ruth WrightThanks for coming back to let us know! – in your position, a clean install was probably the easiest solution, and is what would have been recommended in the end anyhow.Good Luck with your ‘new’ machine !
