Server 2008 (NOT R2) no longer genuine..this is a DC..need help

Question
-
We had a working DC a couple weeks of ago but now when we login it keeps asking for a license. So far we have tried the following in the order listed:
1. disabling the Plug-n-Plug
2. changing the security on the Plug-n-play via gpo
3. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978305 resetting the permissions in the registry.
4. http://social.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/genuinevista/thread/9b1e5560-bb0c-493c-a5bf-0e7e03b86538/ resetting the tokens.dat
Still no go and getting an Error code of 0X8007000D when running slmgr.vbs -ipk
If I run slui and then try changing the code to a KMS code I get the same error as above. I then tried running the MGADIAG and the output is below. I have tried both using a known good KMS key and also a known good MAK key. Really need some help here. Thanks

Rebooted twice and still no go. This was the same thing that I did in Step 4 from the beginning. It does ask to Activate as soon as I login and once I put in ANY known good key (KMS or MAK) it gives me this error:
Windows Activation Error:
A problem occurred when Windows tried to activate. Error Code 0X8007000d.
and here again is the MGADIAGs but this time using a MAK key:

BIOS valid for OA 2.0: yes, but no SLIC table
I’m not sure about MAK Keys, but KMS Keys rely on the presence of a SLIC table in the BIOS to validate the fact that the installation is an Upgrade, rather than a clean install.If this is the case with MAK Keys also, then that may be the cause of your problem.There is also a file mismatch present -File Mismatch: C:\Windows\system32\linkinfo.dll[Hr = 0x80070002]Please look for the file, and see if it exists – if not, then try copying it from another system and pasting into the affected one – an SFC /SCANNOW may also be able to accomplish a repair/replacement of the file.Darin (the MS forum owner) may be able to throw more light on the BIOS subject, but in the meanwhile it may be worth trying a BIOS update/refresh to see if that helps.In summary, then...1) try an SFC to repair the file mismatch – run an MGADiag report, and see f the mismatch is fixed.2) if not fixed, then try copy/pasting from another system3) If that fixes the mismatch, but the problem remains, try the Licensing store recreation again. – post another MGADiag afterwards.4) Try a BIOS update, and post another MGADiag.

Noel Paton | Nil Carborundum Illegitemi | CrashFixPC | The Three-toed SlothDoing a little digging, it appears that a linkinfo.dll file is also implicated in a number of malware infections.When was the last time you ran a full system AV scan on the machine? Is it possible that the file was removed by a false-positive detection by the AV?

Please post a new MGADiag report – there is no way that the Desktop Experience should affect the WGA status (at least, that I am aware of) – what made you try it?
