  I would suggest trying the Product Key Update Tool - it may be able to correct the problem with the licensing store...

  Use the Product Key Update Tool - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows/help/genuine/product-key to 'change' the Key to the one from your license, then reboot and  post a new MGADiag report so we can confirm that everything went OK

  Thanks for the suggestion but when I inputed my product key the Update tool gave me an error message that the product key was already in use and prompting me to input a different number. My product label and key are genuine and the letters/numbers match the one on the MGADiag report (of course the first ten characters are obscured on the report but the rest are identical).  I'm having the same problem I've seen others write about: I go the validation website, and the screen indicates it is starting to work, asking us to wait, and then goes to a blank screen. It doesn't indicate  the validation has failed, it just doesn't do anything. This appears to me to be an internal Microsoft problem.

  If you're using FireFox, that about the normal state of affairs.

  IE *should* work, but with the license store error you have it would fail anyhow.

  I'm not that familiar with XP foibles with this error - but try the fix here...

  I am not using the Firefox browser, I use Internet Explorer. The last suggestion did no good for me.  MS Security Essentials found no virus so that can be blamed. Results from the Genuine Microsoft Software - Diagnostic Site indicate everything passed. When I go to  http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate/ValidationResult.aspx?displaylang=en&cCode=USA&PageName=validate

  I get a blank white screen and the website does not complete the process. What is a license store error? I've used this computer for over 15 months with the copy of XP it came loaded with without a problem until recently. Why can't Microsoft fix this?

  The License store correlates the Windows Licenses with the certificates and other variables - if it's damaged, then WGA will complain.

  Let's see if there's an easy fix...

  Click on Start > Run

  in the box, type

  SFC /SCANNOW

  and click OK

  You'll almost certainly need to have your XP CD handy.

  once complete, reboot and post a new MGADiag report.
