RJARRRPCGP Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Just after a recent update, a new icon appears saying this software is not genuine, has anyone got a patch to stop this appearing?OllyI dunno why that would occur all of a sudden.
junglist Posted September 12, 2006 Author Posted September 12, 2006 its my first post because i registered on this site to post this question.
jimmsta Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Well, did you purchase XP, or did you install a pirated version? If the former, then try out Microsoft's diagnostics tool for WGA notification problems: http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/diag/Otherwise, BUY A COPY OF WINDOWS. There's no LEGAL way around it.
Bigbrit Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 What your download did was to load the latest WGA files that link to a Microsoft database of Corp #'s that have "escaped" to the wild, yours is on of them.The activation works when you installed, all the Corp versions do. However, they fail the WGA check.As one of the answers above said, buy a legal copy.Microsoft will sell you a key # on-line for $149.00, cheaper to buy one on the Internet.

junglist Posted September 13, 2006 Author Posted September 13, 2006 im sure someone has a patch of some kind they can share. no its not genuine, cant afford to pay retail, pirate all the way
Misha Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 I would stop looking here for answers to your problem, there won't be many.
prx984 Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 by passing WGA is illegal, don't bring msfn down by discussing how to remove it. just buy a copy of XP home upgrade or something.
