An unauthorized change was made to windows Error: 0x80070426 the service has not been started

Question
-
After running for a few years now with no recent hardware changes I started getting this error message. I have already checked software licensing services and it is set to automatic. If I attempt to start the service, I get
"windows could not start the Software Licensing service on Local Computer. Error 9xd0000022: 0xd0000022"
If I attempt to start the service as an admin from the cmd prompt, I get:
The Software licensing service is starting.
The Software Licensing service could not be started.
A system error has occurred
System error 34 has occurred.
The wrong diskette is in the drive.
Insert *** <Volume Serial Number: ***> into drive ***.
Here is the MGAD report

Please run a full CHKDSK and SFC scan....
Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right-click on the Command Prompt entry
Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.
At the Command prompt, type
CHKDSK C: /R
and hit the Enter key.
You will be told that the drive is locked,
and the CHKDSK will run at he next boot - hit the Y key, press Enter, and then reboot.
The CHKDSK will take a few hours depending on the size of the drive, so be patient!
After the CHKDSK has run, Windows should boot normally (possibly after a second auto-reboot) -
then run the SFC.
SFC -System File Checker - Instructions
Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right-click on the Command Prompt entry
Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.
At the Command prompt, type
SFC /SCANNOW
and hit the Enter key
Wait for the scan to finish - make a note of any error messages - and then reboot.
Copy the CBS.log file created (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log) to your desktop (you can't manipulate it directly) and then compress the copy and upload it to your SkyDrive Public folder (http://skydrive.live.com ) and post a link to it so that I can take a look.
Post a new MGADiag report with details of any error messages encountered.
