Ok, so I it a new mobo in today, and for some odd reason it's telling me windows 7 isn't genuine?, I know it is, it was a fresh install, any idea why this is?

1. Just press windows key on your keyboard
2. type cmd in the RUN(Now you see here cmd)
3. Right click on cmd and choose "Run as administrator."

4. (After cmd has opened) type the following command in cmd

"slmgr -rearm"

and hit enter.
5. Now you see a new msg.Click ok.

After that restart you system.
when window is starting,you see a notification to activate your window.Click on "cancel" option here in the msg window and lets start the system.

You have post bios screen disabled or a quick boot. Go to Control Panel > System > Windows Activation. Check to see if it is activated. If you are 100% it is genuine, give Microsoft a note(Through help, call, email or anything)

I changed a mobo this morning from a dead Asus M5A99X EVO to a smaller Asus board and as always, Windows 7 not unreasonably thought it might have been copied.

As soon as you have ethernet drivers installed, go into Control Panel>system and at the bottom of the form, click on Activate now. Chances are it will work - mine always do whenever I have to change boards or other major hardware alterations.

No that's not what I meant, my temps sit at 28 at the moment, not tested in a game, but the tj max "using core temp" is 90, and it's supposed Tao be 70.
Considering the temps are near 10c lower then usual, I'm n happy the paste is on ok, I did the pea trick, a small pea/rice grain dot in the middle, and used the heatsink to squash it down and spread the paste it's self.
