Hello Derrick,
All appears well after reading your MGA diagnostic results and all that is required is for you to reactivate Windows.
Please contact a Microsoft customer service representative to activate Windows by phone by following these steps:
1. Click “Start”, point to” All Programs”, point to “Accessories”, point to” System Tools”, and then click “Activate Windows”.
Or, click the Windows Activation icon in the notification area.
2. Click Yes, I want to telephone a customer service representative to active Windows now.
3. Click “Read the Windows Product Activation Privacy Statement”, click “Back”, and then click “Next”.
4. Follow the steps in the Activate Windows by phone dialog box and then click “Next”.Note: The number appears now and differs based on the location that you select.
5. Once activation is completed and you receive the following message, click “OK”.
You have successfully activated your copy of Windows.More information on how to activate Windows XP at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307890
Also you may reference the following site for various telephone activation centers: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326851
If you are done with the activation, kindly proceed in validating the copy of your software by going to http://www.microsoft.com/genuine . Click “Validate Windows” button.
Please post again if you need further assistance. Thank you.
Thank you
