Windows Not Genuine?
March 1st, 2014
Lately I’ve been getting this Windows Not Genuine message, you know the key icon on the task bar?
Anyway, when go to the Control Panel -> System, after like 1-2 seconds I get ‘Windows is Genuine’ and the genuine icon appears, and the key thingi on the task bar disappears.
Have anyone seen this kind of issue before? and knows the way to solve it?
Thanks in advance !
What version of Windows?
XP, Vista, 7?
ahh sorry I didn’t mention it in my post.. its Windows 7.

The best and working (first) solution is…
1. Rearm Windows (Don’t ask me how you have Google for that)
2. Download Windows Loader by DAZ

Or avoid all the hassles whenever you install an update and get a patched Bios and use an OEM certificate. It should never be detected as not genuine because it would invalidate many 1000’s of paying customer’s Windows installs and M$ doesn’t want to upset large OEM manufacturer’s such as Dell etc.
I use a patched Bios and have never had a problem with updates on Win 7, when I use it which isn’t often because I don’t like it.
