I cloned my C Drive 250gb Samsung SSD to a new Samsung 500gb SSD. All is well except that Windows 7 Professional says my copy of it is not genuine (it is and I have the CD I installed it from)

I've tried re-entering the #s and Windows gives me an error message.

Can anyone suggest how I might resolve this issue? I've searched forums and can't find a definitive answer. I'm not a tech so please spell out in detail what I should try.

Thanks in advance for any help
 
Solution
Where did you buy this key? If you bought a discount key, then Microsoft may have invalidated it. You can try the phone call to MS to get it validated.
