ungenuine windows license

peteym

Will someone please tell me where I can purchase a genuine windows license. My copy is unfortunately "ungenuine" and no matter what pop-up balloons I click on telling me to purchase a genuine license I cannot seem to purchase one! and my head is now wrecked!!!

Yes, you can buy a genuine Microsoft Windows from ... just about any computer/parts shop. However you will most likely have to reinstall windows when you do this.

You can even buy it online it's much cheaper then the shops .

Any shop will have it!! Go to the activation of windows Xp in the start menu and you can click on change product key and it will allow oyu enter your genuine key without installing windows again!!

forget the shops.. contact microsft, tell them some joe soap sold you a second hand computer with non genuine windows... they will offer you a discounted copy because of your honesty when you could have simply dissabled the WGA notify crap

Its on their website... look for it and call them.
