Hello MFBN Montana,
The computer currently has a KMS Client version of Vista Business installed.
KMS Client versions of Vista are used thru a Volume License by Large Companies, Universities or Government Agencies to easily manage large numbers of Windows installs within their organization. A KMS Client version of Vista activates by connecting to the organization’s KMS Server that is located within the organization’s own network (i.e. KMS Clients do not connect to Microsoft to Activate).
I suggest contacting your organization’s Network Administrator or IT Dept. for assistance in connecting to (and Activating with) your organization’s KMS Server.
If you Are the organization’s Network Administrator or IT Dept, please see the following links for additional information regarding KMS (and other Volume License) Activation:Volume Activation 2.0 Operations Guide: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc303274.aspx

Hello MFBN Montana,
Download and run the Genuine Diagnostics tool found at this link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012.
Run the Tool, click "Continue" then click the "Copy" button. Return to this Thread and Paste the report into the thread along with a detailed description of the issue you are experiencing.Please also post the error code you get (if any) when you validate by clicking "Validate Windows" here: www.microsoft.com/genuine. The error code will be gray and in brackets at the end of the message on the page that says validation failed. (It'll look something like this: [0xC004C000]).
