    I am trying to make it so that I can save my MSWord 2007 (Vista) document as a pdf. file.  However, it requires me to validate that my Microsoft Office is genuine.  When I go through these procedures it still says it is not genuine.  This is a fairly new computer and I ordered it with the MSOffice package already loaded on it from Lenovo.  What in the world am I supposed to do?

    amydawndoppsl,

    If you have Windows Vista,  try to run Internet Explorer as Administrator and revalidate. 


    "1) Right-click IE7 shortcut icon in the Quick Launch toolbar and select Run as Administrator, or

    2) Click the Vista Start button, type Internet in the Start Search Vista-Search box, right-click Internet Explorer in Program listing and click the Run as Administrator option, or

    3) Locate “Internet Mode: On” in the IE7 status bar (bottom-right of IE7 window) and double-click on it. Unchecked the check-box for “Enable Protected Mode (Requires restarting Internet Explorer)”

    If you are still having issues validating, please run the following tool and resend the diag report back on this thread.

    I hope this helps,
