Hello, I bought windows 7 around 4 months a go and I didnt have any issue till now; I bought a new graphics card and installed it, a few days later, I got a message in the task bar about hardware changes and that it was necessary to validate my product; I did it by phone, there was no problem at all, but now like 5 days later, I got the same message: I need to validate again; I havent changed any hardware, neither configured anything, so I dont know whats going on. Is there any way to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

This can sometimes happen because of driver updates for the motherboard - but there may be other reasons

To properly analyse and solve problems with Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
Once saved, run the tool.
Click on the Continue button, which will produce the report.

OEM Activation 2.0 Data-->

Thanks

That's OK - I understand less than half of it, and that's usually enough :)

You have a weird activation problem - Your Key is apparently a Retail one - but the error message is for a KMS Volume License.

Note that a KMS License could not be valid on your machine, as it's based on a retail motherboard, and KMS Licenses require a BIOS SLIC table to help validate them.

What happens if you go to www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate ? - are you offered IE9 and MSE, or do you get an error message?

either way, once complete, post back with results and another MGADiag report

In that link I get, after some validation process, a welcome banner, a link to download Security Essentials, IE9 and a link for windows live. I already have IE9 tho.

For retail you mean a brand computer? because I assembled this machine. the only modification after I installed windows 7 was the video card upgrade.

MS Validation obviously thinks your key is genuine :)

Please post another MGADiag report - with any luck this will have solved the problem, unless you are still seeing the non-genuine notifiaction.
