I first discovered their was a problem when my control panel would appear then close without showing any icons. I then tried to install windows updates that were not installed. The updates did not configure properly, and rolled-back. I then tried to system restore, but that did not configure properly, and reverted back. I then tried the Genuine validation, after searching through forums, my office software, home and student 2007, passed validation; yet, my vista did not pass validation. I have tried searching for solutions, and am still not even sure this is the right place. Please help, or at least guide me in the right direction.
I am not sure what information you need.
I am running 32 bit vista that was installed on my Toshiba A205-S4607
I ran a system diagnostic, through the Reliability and Performance Monitor, but I am not sure how to get all the info in here.
I am not sure how people are getting the other Diagnostic Info, with the WGA information.
I have tried the net start slsvc a few times and it still does not pass.
This copy of Windows did not pass genuine validation.
Either
an unauthorized change was made to your Windows license or a software
program installed on this computer is not currently compatible with
Windows Vista.
Recommended Solution
-
Restart the Software Licensing service.
-
Click the Start button, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then choose Run as administrator. The Command Prompt window opens.
-
In the Command Prompt window, type the command net start slsvc and then press ENTER.
-
When the message "Software Licensing service was started" appears, close Command Prompt window.
-
Validate your copy of Windows again by going to http://www.Microsoft.com/genuine and clicking Validate Windows.
-
If Windows validation still fails after restarting the Software
Licensing service, then try repairing the corrupted file with Disk
Cleanup. The Disk Cleanup process will handle finding the files and
prompting to repair them.
