Validation message after fitting additional new HDD (Win XP)

Question
-
I fiited an additional (NOT boot) drive this afternoon and since then i'm getting a "This copy of windows is not genuine" message.
I've had XP on this desktop for just under 4 years, running mostly Office 2007, Outlook, Adobe Acrobat v9 and AutoCad.
When fitting the new HDD I also removed the two other disks and cleaned/dusted them - could it be that the Sata connection cable to boot drive C got switched, could that cause it? If so, would switching back the cable sort it?
Thanks for any help you can give me!
The diagnostic tool gives me the following text:

Unfortunately, it appears you have a non-genuine copy of Windows XP Pro installed using a Volume License that has been blocked by Microsoft at the request of the original owner of that license due to misuse. You will need to purchase a new Windows operating system, such as Windows 7 or Windows 8, and perform a "clean install".

I think there is a virus going around changing product keys to *****-*****-6BKXT-M8JJ6-RPXGJ
I've been dealing with this annoying problem two weeks. Just solved it tonight:
Download and run WinKeyFinder
Select "Change Key"
Enter your correct product key
Enjoy

Not so fast. The entire text of the Microsoft Windows XP End User License Agreement would also have to be changed which "WinKeyFinder" does not do.
