I purchased this computer a few years ago and it included Windows XP Pro. All of a sudden I am recieving "validation failure notices" A continous screen on the bottom states I do not have Genuine Microsoft. Now they want 149.00 for a validation key. Does anyone know why this has happened this week and not last year. Is there anything I can do to resolve this issue without spending more money? And the million dollar question that I know all of you will ask me.....re-enter the product key from the CD. Well that is my biggest problem I got everything from this lady except Windows XP PRO sp2. I know that everything I do now is being monitered. I am no computer wizard but just want my computer to run like it did last week
