first time here. I have an Acer Aspire that was purchased 3 years ago with Windows 7 loaded. Now, Microsoft thinks I do not have a genuie copy of Window 7 and gives me annoying messages. I contacted Microsoft and the support person saw that I do have an activated copy of Windows 7. Still, I get the messages. I tried restoring to previous copies, and I tried fixing the startup. My goal is to fix this without wiping all my installed software, pictures, etc. from the computer. Suggestions? How bad can it get with Microsoft? Do I need a CD from Acer? How would I ask for that?
Thanks a million, I really need to solve this.
Bill
