     My computer  giving me ____ of a time since MARCH and I cannot validate. why? because the WgaPluginInstaller.exe should pop up in the http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/diag/Instructions.aspx?displaylang=en&s=ci,cn&cnt=1 page but it's not. I checked a similar complain: http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/genuinevista/thread/49a074c6-019a-41e5-bad2-e10f9581cd57, but the links are NOT WORKING AT ALL. I seriously need to validate because I cannot work fullscreen because once I try, I get a window: Windows Aero is not working, you may be a victim of software counterfeiting. And, eventually, I might see an error:an unothorized change was made to windows ,Description: the security processor reported a system file mismatch error. Please provide a vital answer instead of some general links. Thanks.
