How do you get my Windows to be genuine?

Question
-
OK so I bought this PC and it does not have a genuine copy of Windows XP Professional. Now I purchased a new copy & installed it. Now on start up it gives me 2 options to open. The first 1 is the new real copy & the second 1 is the old pirated windows. I now want to keep all my information as I have used this PC a little while and I want to remove the other new install I just made.
So how can I make my illegal version legal with my new key code, and then how do I remove my new legal version so they are not both on my P? TYTuesday, March 25, 2008 7:48 PM

Hey Shawn,
Where did you purchase Windows XP from? We request all users initially run the Genuine Diagnostics tool to try and identify the problem you may be experiencing. Did you receive any error codes and/or statements whatsoever indicating a failed validation? Please try validating windows again by visiting the following location: http://www.microsoft.com/genuine next click on the "Validate Windows" button in the upper right corner. What happens? The genuine site can also provide you with valuable information so please take time and review the documents. Another site for helping customers identify genuine vs. non-genuine software is located here: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/howtotell/
Next please download and run the utility at this link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012, then click the Windows tab, Copy to Clipboard, then paste the report into a New Post on this Forum. This would assist us immensely so we may analyze possible causes for a failed validation. Next we will begin formulating a resolution for what may be causing the problem.
Step 2 is telling us about the COA. Tell us:
1. What edition of Windows XP is it for, Home, Pro, or Media Center?
2. Does it read "OEM Software" or "OEM Product" in black lettering?
3. Or, does it have the computer manufacturer's name in black lettering?
4. DO NOT post the Product Key.
5. Please also provide a short description of the issue you are experiencing.
NOTE: The data collected with the Genuine Diagnostics Tool does NOT contain any information that can personally identify you and can be fully reviewed, by you, before being posted.
Thank you,
Stephen Holm
