This copy of Windows is not Genuine/New and improved thread with diagnostic report

Question
-
Last Sunday, Jan. 31, 2010, I tried to update some songs on my iPhone and the system crashed. I was left with a black screen desktop with the following in the lower right corner just above the toolbar:
Windows Vista (TM)
Build 6002
This copy of Windows is not Genuine
I have tried slui.exe 3 and 4. Only 3 brought a response which asked me to activate Vista with my Product Key. After entering the PK it told me it was invalid. OEM installation of Vista from HP when I purchased the computer in '08. I ran Malwarebytes anti-malware in safe mode. No infected files. Anything in the Start Menu will not function: no control panel, no computer properties, very few programs listed and none of them work from the Start Menu. I can back door a command line prompt from an address bar in the toolbar and get Internet Explorer to work, but I cannot download anything or start a Remote session with MS support. 2 1/2 hours on the phone last night with no resolution as of yet. I have tried every solution posted in similar threads multiple times. Any suggestions?Diagnostic Report (1.9.0019.0):

Hello kafkaesque,
The Diagnostic Report suggest that Vista's Licensing Store is corrupt or unreadable for some reason. Please try the below steps to recreate the Store.
1) Open an Internet Browser window.
2) Type: %windir%\system32 into the browser address bar.
3) Find the file CMD.exe
4) Right-Click on CMD.exe and select Run as Administrator
5) Type: net stop slsvc (it may ask you if you are sure, select yes)
6) Type: cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareLicensing
7) Type: rename tokens.dat tokens.bar
8) Type: cd %windir%\system32
9) Type: net start slsvc
10) Type: cscript slmgr.vbs -rilc (It may take a long time for this to complete, please be patient)
11) Restart your computer twice.
12) You may be required to enter the Product Key and/or Activate.

I will try this again; however, when I tried it earlier today (for some reason the pc had more funtionality today thus the diagnostic report) after the rename command it said "A duplicate file name exists, or the file cannot be found." Any suggestions if this does not work?
Same message as before: A duplicate file exists, or the file cannot be found.Friday, February 5, 2010 11:37 PM -
My Windows Vista Ultimate OEM that I bought when I built my pc is now not recognised by Microsoft as being a valid copy. I have just had to reinstall after a bad crash, this would be the fourth/fifth time in five years. I tried your above but it still tells me that the software is in use by another computer. I am frustrated beyond belief especially as there is no direct contact available with Microsaft other than £46 an hour pro help. I am not paying another £80 just to get a product key so I can use my own copy of windows. Any help would be appreciated.

Dave - Your OEM copy of software will not be honored by Microsoft. You will have to go to the OEM to resolve this. Additionally, the Product key on your device doesn't mean anything. It's not your Product Key and it won't work. Essentially the sticker is a complete lie.
The OEM probably will only allow you to completely wipe out your system and start over.
Personally I find this reprehensible conduct, however that's what you are stuck with. I know.... I'm facing the same thing with my IBM and Windows Vista Ultimate. Microsoft will not honor and IBM/Lenovo will not ID the Product Key. They will only honor a complete system wipe out to original.
So, you think you have your own copy of a Genuine Microsoft OS, but in reality you do not.Saturday, February 6, 2010 4:10 PM -
I no longer have the non-genuine message in the lower right corner; however, I still have reduced function of the pc. Thanks for your help. I'm off to search other forums.Sunday, February 7, 2010 2:11 AM

Thanks D, I suspected as much I just hoped somebody had found a solution. No respect for Microsoft any more they deserve to have their products pirated and the OEM should make it clear that the product has a limited lifespan if you have to reinstall.Sunday, February 7, 2010 11:07 AM

Dave- Just to update you. Of course there is no support from Lenovo. Their phone message states they wanted me "extremely satisfied".... That would also be a lie. Since they will not give me a VALID Product ID for the system I purchased from them I decided since my information was still intact that I'd spend $300 and add it to the thousands already given to Microsoft for subpar product and purchased Windows 7 Professional. And, just so Microsoft can screw me one more time I cannot upgrade this as the existing OS is Vista Ultimate.
So, back to the store today to add $15 more dollars.
I can tell you right now I am extremely tempted to put this system back to it's original state, turn off firewalls, delete anti-virus, prevent any updates and put it on the net.
My troubles all originated from a Microsoft update. Since Microsoft and the OEM both don't honor the end user I would be wary of applying any updates from Microsoft if you are running OEM supplied Microsoft OS. The OEM provider should actually be providing their own OEM software updates they maintain responsibility for--- However, I can see that Msoft and the OEM have their cake and are eating it. Time to write a letter to my local governor and senators.
EDIT: This gets even better.... I now have WIN 7 Ultimate and it cannot load in safe mode. Since the system is requiring an activation license code the manufacturer will not give I cannot do anything. So, not only do I not have a valid license agreement from the OEM, I now have (useless to me) WIN 7 Ultimate I will now be returning.
I am now thouroughly determined to get on this with the local governments in my state. Web site to follow. This is simply ridiculous behavior by Microsoft and the OEM and this type of beating the consumer to death should be stopped.- Edited by DClasen Sunday, February 7, 2010 5:02 PM More Information

Here is the Moderator Darin's explanation--- http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en/genuinevista/thread/a4e1ea1d-fae7-4711-9f70-07839455dd58
Problem with the explanation is the Product Key underneath is still a lie - or at the very least in the case of IBM/Lenovo they refused to honor it stating "it's a MSoft requirement but it means nothing. "
What matters is the result here and I had a computer with what was supposed to be valid software. Something went wrong and even though my programs and data were intact Microsoft and the OEM forced me into wiping out my drive and starting over. I also see that Lenovo modified the MSoft EULA to do some serious CYA so I can't get them there.
So, next best thing for me besides writing the local politicians is dumping anything Msoft I have from phone to PC. Other than business necessity I'm done with these people. I'm going to finally try Apple. Likely they aren't out for participating in the malicious treatment MSoft and Lenovo delivered.
Darin, you can take your company and I think you know what to do with it.Monday, February 8, 2010 6:05 AM -
I am with you DClasen, I have a ubuntu disk which, although not the best system in the world, is free! Microsoft you don't deserve loyal customers.Monday, February 8, 2010 8:39 AM

Dave- One last update. Since I found Darin's post I recontacted Lenovo. I got the same ____ story as before. So, I asked for the Supervisor and again the same garbage where they said the Product Key on the bottom meant absolutely nothing and MSoft simply required it be attached.
So, then I asked for the COA-SLP number on the back of the device to be replaced. Because if I have that number I can at least phone it in. Then the Supervisor started admitting that probably they could have resolved my issue with this. Of course I let him know my complete displeasure about the situation. So, I went through two Supervisors and 7 techs and only the very last one disclosed information.
So, this is the game the OEM plays with you. Of course Msoft is not much better because they don't support their product by giving reasonable information on OEMs when you call in. You have to hunt it down on a message board.Monday, February 8, 2010 4:46 PM -

Additionally, the Product key on your device doesn't mean anything. It's not your Product Key and it won't work. Essentially the sticker is a complete lie.
That is completly incorrect. The Product Key located on the Certificate of Authenticity sticker on the side or bottom of the computer IS a valid Product Key and Will work.
You may be upset but do not spead misinformation on this forum.
