Windows 7 Build 7601 Not Genuine - Dell Optiplex 755

Question
-
I'm working remotely on a machine inside of a company that I do IT support for. I logged into it last week and noticed that it was no longer genuine.
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Here is my report:

Note: As an alternative to Carey's solution, of buying a full version of Windows 7, you could contact Dell and get the Windows Vista recovery disk for that model PC. The Windows would then be Genuine but the downside is that it would be Vista, not Windows 7.
As for your question regarding a possible Dell Vista to Windows 7 upgrade deal, they may have had such a deal. However, this has no relation to your specific issue. The Windows 7 key in your report is an OEM SLP key. This type of key is Only used in windows that came pre-installed from the factory. The reason for this is that a PC that is pre-installed with an OEM SLP key Windows has to have a OEM Bios Flag/Marker in it Bios that is specific to the version of Windows that is pre-installed. in the case of your PC, the Bios Flag/Marker would be for Vista so an OEM SLP key for Windows 7 would not work (which is why your Windows 7 is showing as Non-Genuine).
If that Windows 7 had been an upgrade supplied by Dell, the "Windows License Type:" section of the report would have instead shown "OEM System Builder". This type of key is not dependent on a Bios Flag/Marker.

It appears someone used an unauthorized Dell OEM SLP (System Locked Preinstallation) Windows 7 Professional DVD to install on a Dell computer manufacturered back in the year 2008, well before Windows 7 was released. In order to rectify this issue, you'll need to purchase a "Full Retail" edition of Windows 7 Professional and perform a "clean install".

The computer appears to be using a non-genuine copy of Windows. It is using a factory installed copy (OEM SLP)
Windows Product ID Type: 2
Windows License Type: OEM SLPthat is wrong for this Dell. Windows 7 released to manufacturing on July 24, 2009 but the computer was built 15 months earlier, April 30, 2008.

Windows 7 could not have been installed at the Dell factory.
OEM SLP copies require a corresponding SLIC table in the BIOS. If the wrong OEM SLP copy of Windows was used to reinstall on this Dell then it would give a non-genuine notification after the grace period expired since it would be unable to self-activate using the existing SLIC table on the motherboard. That table is for XP or Vista.
I suggest that you discreetly explore this with the company you are supporting. Someone installed a copy of Windows on this computer that was meant for use with a much later Dell.

Interesting... Thanks for the information. Just out of curiosity did Dell ever do the Vista to Windows 7 deal like HP did? I'm just wondering if it was a situation like that. I do know that the IT guy that was there before me didn't exactly do everything how it probably should have been done.
Thanks for your help!

They did – but such Licenses are always OEM_System_Builder onesThis machine is also too old to have qualified for the free upgrade.
