Windows Not Genuine error 0x8004fe21 RRS feed

  • Question

  • After I installed the recent windows updates my PC starting saying that my copy of Windows 7 is not genuine. I upgraded my genuine copy of Windows XP about 2 years [estimate] ago with a 'Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Family Pack (3-User)' which I have sitting in front of me. I have tried to re enter the Product Key into Control Panel/ System and it accepts it yet I still get this error. I also tried to System Restore which fixed it from popping up for about 3 days but now it is back. Your help would be greatly appreciated! 

    Here is the requested MGA Diganostic report.

  • Hello,

    I tried to complete the first step but it came up with an error, 'Installer encountered an error 0x800f0900'. The command window looked like this...

    Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
    Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

    C:\Users\Jessica>wusa /uninstall /kb:971033

    C:\Users\Jessica>

    I thought I should check back here before installing the update as the first step didn't work. Thanks for the quick response!

  • This looks as if you could have some serious problems.

    Please run a full CHKDSK and SFC scan....

     

    Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories

    Right-click on the Command Prompt entry

    Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

     

    At the Command prompt, type

     

    CHKDSK C: /R

     

    and hit the Enter key.

    You will be told that the drive is locked,

    and the CHKDSK will run at he next boot - hit the Y key, press Enter, and then reboot.

     

    The CHKDSK will take a few hours depending on the size of the drive, so be patient!

     

    After the CHKDSK has run, Windows should boot normally (possibly after a second auto-reboot) -

    then run the SFC.

     

    SFC -System File Checker - Instructions

    Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories

    Right-click on the Command Prompt entry

    Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

     

    At the Command prompt, type

     

    SFC /SCANNOW

     

    and hit the Enter key

     

    Wait for the scan to finish - make a note of any error messages - and then reboot.

     

     

    Copy the CBS.log file created (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log) to your desktop (you can't manipulate it directly) and then compress the copy and upload it to your SkyDrive Public folder (http://skydrive.live.com ) and post a link to it so that I can take a look.

     

    Post a new MGADiag report with details of any error messages encountered.

  • Hello. I went through your first steps from earlier with my boyfriend and it worked, so I must have messed up somewhere. It found the update, uninstalled it, we rebooted, installed from the link you provided and rebooted again. I have run the MGADiag program again and here are the results.

  • It looks happy now :)

    You should validate at www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate using Internet Explorer - it should pass - just to make sure there's nothing hiding in the woodwork.
