i have had this problem 3 times already, i just reformatted last night, all i installed was drivers, and antivirus. windows was genuine, but as soon as i go to download some updates from MS, that i keep on an external drive, until i get a bunch then slipstream them so i dont have to download in the future, your validate windows tells me my os isnt activated, and behold i no longer have a genuine copy. now i find it weird that i activated it last night had the genuine logo this morning and checked it after i installed what i installed and still had it. apparently MS has some bugs to work out in the your validation software, but as a consumer who dropped 400 on windows vista ultimate this is getting old.
