Hi. I’ve tried everything you have suggested to ensure my software is genuine but to no avail. I’ve located the original product key, but when I use the “tool”, it says that these numbers match the product key given and therefore it won’t update my system. I have to tell you that I downloaded the “trial” version of Microsoft 2007 and uninstalled it after the trial was over. I have ALL the product keys (XP and 2007 and 2002 Publisher), but I still receive messages that my product may not be genuine. Do I have to purchase the genunie advantage? Thanks for your help!

Using Ghost we cloned one computer onto another, faster etc. Using the diag tool the key is showing ok even though the product label on the computer does not agree. Should I change it to match the computer or leave it alone? The old computer will probably be recycled.
