Download says copy of windows not genuine? [Merged]

cargo

The threads about this have been going on and on everybody must by now be aware there are patches for this which are quick and easy to apply.
Yes I know this is illegal but all you people who have this problem are gonna have to live with the nag screen and not be able to get the updates or as a last resort google and run the patch but for gods sake lets put an end to these threads.
There are numrous threads on the board regarding this matter and legit ways to get rid of the screen.
thx to Quincy

So options are - try MS, leave as-is (and look at how to disable wgatray.exe ) or buy a competitive upgrade to XP

To disable wgatrray.exe download System Mechanic trial version free from Iolo.com

I am sure Cargo that not one person would waste time asking a question if they already had the solution. They may know more than you about other subjects i.e Spelling! Please have a little more patience as we are not all I.T. Experts

I am sure Lemontree that many people just start a thread without searching the forums or even touching a search engine.(Google)

Yes well spotted I am not to good at spelling and to be honest not right bothered about it either as being a Plasterer it doesnt really hinder me.

Also being a Plasterer I have no I.T. knowledge at all only what you pick up by solving these problems as they occur.

Many thx for your kind words.

lemontree

Sorry for having a go at you Cargo but I did look at threads but did not look for the right words. By the way both my Sons are Tradesmen and pick up IT a lot quicker than I do. Sorry again!

cargo

No problem Lemontree,if I am honest it was out of character for me to post a thread with that tone in the first place.

Lets put it behind us.
