Counterfeit window version

Question
-
Recently, our old computer had tons of problems so we took it for repair and reboot.
we are glad that it's running ok and thats new things install ( we finally got alot of space, 55 GB *love*)
But we wanted to make sure that are computer was in great condition, so we tried updating. When we updated, we had gotten that the computer or window version was counterfeit and could not pass the genuine window validation. We didn't know something like that is actually possible. But in this case, the computer cannot update and the sign is still there, and the background is also amiss. Is there any way to fix this problem if possible?
*edit*
I search a bit and found a Microsoft Genuine Advance Diagnostic tool, and use the program i believe correctly, i also copy and hope that it helps.

Good Morning Broken Dreams,
Thank you for visiting the Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) program forum. I understand the inconvenience you are currently experiencing. We have seen numerous issues from customers who were provided a Volume License Key (VLK) on their computer that has either been blocked by Microsoft or generated by a fake product key code generator. WGA currently provides checks for these types of product keys and prompts the user to notify them of this situation. More invalid product keys are being identified daily and WGA is constantly refreshing its database with these newly identified product keys and immediately blocks them.
Right now, your computer has a Volume License (VL) edition of Office XP Professional with FrontPage identified. Below is an extract taken from the MGA Diagnostic results you provided to us:WGA Data-->
Validation Status: Blocked VLK

Windows Product Key: *****-*****-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8

As a rule, VL editions should not be sold to individual consumers. Businesses, schools and governments normally use VL editions for flexibility in installing many computers. Also, Volume Licenses for Windows XP is Upgrade licenses ONLY and cannot be used as the original or base license for a new computer. I noticed your computer is a built system vs. one purchase through a major manufacturer such as Dell. Curious where did you purchase Windows XP Professional from when your system was built? Next have you compared your XP Professional media disc against other located here: http://www.howtotell.com ? This can give you more insight. Next did you take your XP Professional media to the business who performed the repairs and reformatted your computer? When you originally purchased XP Professional did you receive a Certificate of Authenticity "COA" sticker? Do the last 15 alpha/numerica characters of the COA have the following YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8? Broken Dreams I would recommend you to open a piracy case by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/piracy.
Take care,
Stephen
