Genuine Advantage Validation Fails with code 0xC8000247

Question
-
I am having identical problems to those in http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/genuinewindows7/thread/4f22a5fd-55c8-4159-9185-72cdb8cf3580?prof=required, though my MGADiag.exe output is slightly different (i.e., my BIOS shows valid for OEM Activation 2.0 and the ACPI Table data seems OK, but my list of file mismatches and tampered files are the same).
My symptoms are exactly as described by Janusz2 about a week ago, but I have a different PC with different drivers. After 2 1/2 years of use (Windows 7 x64, came installed from Acer), my Aspire 1810T HD died, so I replaced it--same manufacturer (Hitachi), larger capacity and faster rpm and bigger cache. When I restored the volume from a ShadowProtect Desktop backup, all seemed to be well, but I see three problems:
1. Opening the system management console produces a UAC message I've never seen in this situation, asking if I wanted to allow this program from an unknown manufacturer to modify my system.
2. Windows Update fails, saying the service is not running (but it is). Stopping the service and restarting it has no effect, nor does turning updates off and then on.
3. I am eventually prompted to validate my copy of Windows as genuine--but the validation fails with error code 0xc8000247.
I've restored backups from three different dates, going back to 2010, all with identical results. The event logs show no errors or warnings.
I've tried setting Windows Update to never update. Exiting, rebooting, then resetting it to notify me of available updates. Still fails as above.
I can find no out dated drivers anywhere, but I tried reloading the Intel SATA driver anyway. Still no joy.
Here is the MGADiag output--if anyone has suggestions about what drivers to reinstall (or anything else to try), I'd be very grateful. Also, I would love to have a theory as to how and why my PC got into this state on the restore. I have done this sort of thing before on other PCs with no problems at all. Now I'm gun-shy about the backups!

I am having identical problems to those in http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/genuinewindows7/thread/4f22a5fd-55c8-4159-9185-72cdb8cf3580?prof=required, though my MGADiag.exe output is slightly different (i.e., my BIOS shows valid for OEM Activation 2.0 and the ACPI Table data seems OK, but my list of file mismatches and tampered files are the same).
My symptoms are exactly as described by Janusz2 about a week ago, but I have a different PC with different drivers. After 2 1/2 years of use (Windows 7 x64, came installed from Acer), my Aspire 1810T HD died, so I replaced it--same manufacturer (Hitachi), larger capacity and faster rpm and bigger cache. When I restored the volume from a ShadowProtect Desktop backup, all seemed to be well, but I see three problems:
1. Opening the system management console produces a UAC message I've never seen in this situation, asking if I wanted to allow this program from an unknown manufacturer to modify my system.
2. Windows Update fails, saying the service is not running (but it is). Stopping the service and restarting it has no effect, nor does turning updates off and then on.
3. I am eventually prompted to validate my copy of Windows as genuine--but the validation fails with error code 0xc8000247.
I've restored backups from three different dates, going back to 2010, all with identical results. The event logs show no errors or warnings.
I've tried setting Windows Update to never update. Exiting, rebooting, then resetting it to notify me of available updates. Still fails as above.
I can find no out dated drivers anywhere, but I tried reloading the Intel SATA driver anyway. Still no joy.
Here is the MGADiag output--if anyone has suggestions about what drivers to reinstall (or anything else to try), I'd be very grateful. Also, I would love to have a theory as to how and why my PC got into this state on the restore. I have done this sort of thing before on other PCs with no problems at all. Now I'm gun-shy about the backups!

Noel Paton, thank you for solving this problem! The management console now starts without a UAC prompt, Windows Update seems to operate properly, and the MGADiag output now shows no mismatched or tampered files. I am going to assume that I will no longer be prompted to validate my genuine copy of Windows--but if I am, I expect the validation to now succeed. This has been incredibly helpful. Thank you very, very much.
I have two questions you might still answer, though:
1. How do you suppose this problem was caused? My PC worked properly all along; only after restoring the volume did the problem arise, and it did so in restoring each of three backups, taken over a time period of a year and half?
2. How did you know I needed the Intel Rapid Storage Drivers? I reinstalled all the Intel drivers I could find listed in Device Manager, to no avail. I don't see the Intel Rapid Storage Drivers listed there (or referenced in the MGADiag output).
Anyway, here's the post-install MGADiag output, and thanks again:

From what (little) I can understand, one of two things happened.....1) Intel produced a set of drivers that went outside of the bounds of the documented areas - and when MS updated certain files access was blocked.2) there may be a an access problem inherent somewhere in Windows that this update solves - because it actually resets the permissions as part of the install procedure.Until I can physically get hold of such a machine I have no chance to really work out which it is (and neither company is saying anything).All I really know is that around 90% of the time, the symptoms are cured by installing a proper set of drivers :)

Well, wow. Thank you again for figuring this out and making it so easy to remedy. Because I was working with restored volumes, I was trying everything I could find. When they didn't work, I'd just restore again to erase any problems these remedies might have caused and to keep the issues focused and as simple as possible. I'd been through over a dozen restores, so I was at this point conditioned to expect to see no improvement. At this point, it's like magic. Many thanks for the help and for the attention you've been paying to those of us wallowing in these difficulties.

You're very welcome!
Just as a FWIW, I recently came across a permissions problem that has the same resulting error - marking the Catroot2 folder as Read-Only.
I have no idea whether there is a relationship between the two results.
