"This copy of windows is not genuine"

Just fired up my laptop and in the bottom right hand corner of the screen is

"Windows 7
Build 7601
This copy of windows is not genuine"

It's a fairly new laptop, a little over a year old and purchased from one of the big electrical retailers, so it is genuine. Any idea what might have caused this? Can I ignore it? What do I do to get it fixed?

Just re type in your license in Windows Activation (search in the Start Menu). It will be on a sticker underneath the laptop with a format like xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.

Thanks, all sorted!
