Validation not working

S

steam engineer

I power up my computer. It boots up to the log on screen. When I attempt to
log on it tells me that this version of windows needs to be activated. I
click on yes I would like to activate now. Another windows pops up and tells
me the product is already activated please click ok. I click ok and it then
logs me off and the whole process begins again. It was having no trouble with
the computer before this began. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Even if true, what has that to do with anything? Most of us pass on what we
have learned or read elsewhere. What's wrong with that? What counts is if
the tips are helpful.

And what gems of good advice have you come up with?
I have yet to find a post where you have actually given anything other than
rude and/or condescending comments. After reading 12 months worth of your
posts I have not found one green check mark beside any of your posts!

If I am mistaken, then provide this forum the evidence that you have
actually helped someone here.
