  Hello Diane,

   

  We understand the inconvenience you are currently experiencing and would like to provide you with some self-help options we have made available for our customers. Please follow the steps outlined below as it could either resolve your issue or, if need be, provide us with additional information to determine the cause of this issue.

   

  1.      Ensure you log onto the computer experiencing the issue with “Administrator” rights.

  2.      Next we would like to confirm that you are running the most current version of the Genuine Advantage control on your computer. In order to do this please follow the below link and choose the “Validate Windows” option.

   

  http://www.microsoft.com/genuine

  If the above steps did not resolve your issue lets continue with the steps below.

  If you could also please follow the steps outlined below, the diagnostics Web Site will attempt to resolve the validation errors you are experiencing with Windows.

  http://www.microsoft.com/Genuine/diag/RunDiags.aspx?displayLang=en

  Next follow the on-screen prompts to resolve the issue if any of the checks at the above site fail. If, after attempting to resolve the issue as per the instructions on the above site fails, please refer to the link below and run the MGA Diagnostics tool:

   

  http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012

   

  You will be prompted to either “Run” or “Save” the tool. Choose to “Run” the tool and follow the on-screen prompts. You will receive an “Internet Explorer-Security Warning” dialog box for the “Windows Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool”; you must choose to “Run” this tool when prompted.

   

  Once you are presented with the Diagnostics tool choose “Continue” to run the diagnostic report. If the “RESOLVE” button is available after running the diagnostics, please click “RESOLVE” to allow the diagnostic tool to attempt a repair.

   

  1.      After running the MGA Diagnostic tool, click on the “Windows” tab and then click on “Copy”.

  2.      Please return to this post and “Paste” the results here for additional review.

   

  Step 2 is to look on the computer itself, in the documentation you received with the computer or with your retail purchase of Windows to see if you have a Certificate of Authenticity (COA).  If you have one, tell us about the COA.  Tell us:

  1.  What edition of Windows XP is it for, Home, Pro, or Media Center, or another version of Windows?

  2.  Does it read "OEM Software" or "OEM Product" in black lettering?

  3.  Or, does it have the computer manufacturer's name in black lettering?

  4.  DO NOT post the Product Key.

  Not sure what to look for?  See this page for reference:  http://www.microsoft.com/resources/howtotell/en/coa.mspx

   

  NOTE: The data collected with the Genuine Diagnostics Tool does NOT contain any information that can personally identify you and can be fully reviewed, by you, before being posted.

   

  Thank you,

  Hello Dennit,

   

   

  Thank you for posting your diagnostic information. Diagnostic results help our team in determining the root cause of your issue. I have extracted a portion of your diagnostic results to review with you:

  Office Status: 114 Blocked VLK 2.

  We are sorry to hear about the problem your currently experiencing. I can see right away what the issue is and why you are not passing validation.  Unfortunately, the product key used to install your Office Suite is a Volume License Key (VLK) that has been blocked per the request of the legal VLK holder.  As a rule, VLK editions of either an Operating System and/or Office should not be sold to individual consumers. Businesses, schools and governments normally use VLK editions for flexibility in installing many computers. Also, Volume Licenses for Windows XP and MS Office are Upgrade licenses ONLY and cannot be used as the original or base license for a new computer.

   

  Also please review the Validation Advisor for further guidance at:

  https://www.microsoft.com/genuine/selfhelp/ValidationHelp.aspx

   

      First, if this comes as a total surprise to you, please visit the retailer where you purchased the computer and/or the Office Suite and let them know it is a counterfeit copy.  Please print a copy of the diagnostic report so you may show them proof for the VLK status. Request they immediately reimburse you and/or provide a Genuine Copy.

   

  Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) is here to help protect YOU, our valued customer. It is important for more people like you to report piracy @ http://www.microsoft.com/piracy/default.mspx  who have become victims. Reporting piracy will assist in stopping unscrupulous business practices.  Microsoft legal will follow up on all leads provided.  Submitting piracy reports will assist in stopping unscrupulous business practices.  We CANNOT determine the "Quality" level of non-Genuine submissions and cannot guarantee such a thing here on the forum. You may be eligible for free software if you have high quality counterfeit discs as illustrated here:

  http://www.microsoft.com/resources/howtotell/content.aspx?displaylang=en&pg=counterfeit

   

                   Again, we are sorry to hear about your situation. Please be sure to backup or otherwise offload any data from the hard disk because a clean installation/reimaging will destroy all personal user data on the hard drive. Please don't hesitate re-posting if you need further assistance.  

   

  Thank you,

  Matt Prall, MS

  Rapstar,

   

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) forum.  Your issue is related to Product Activation.  The purpose of this forum is the support of the WGA program and your question falls out of the scope for our support. In an attempt to assist I would like to provide some information which may help. I do suggest trying to activate using the “Activate by Phone” method from the activation Wizard. Telephone numbers for Activation Centers vary by product license and country/region. Use the number provided on your Activation Wizard screen to call the Microsoft Activation Center.  Please follow the below guidance for telephone activation for activating Windows. 

   

   

  To contact a Microsoft customer service representative to activate Windows by phone, follow 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.	When 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

  After you finish the above steps please restart the computer and try to validate Windows again: http://www.microsoft.com/genuine. Please locate the “Validate Windows” button in the upper right hand corner. Double click on the button and follow the guidance. Were you able to pass Windows Validation successfully? Please post again if you need further assistance. Thank

   

   

  Take care
