Hi all,
I upgraded my previous computer to windows 7 home premium, but now I got a mac and want to run windows 7 through bootcamp. I set everything up, but now, after a month, windows comes up as not being a genuine copy. Is there any way for me to reactivate windows through the same serial code?

Thanks in advance

Hello nibuoy,

Windows 7 comes with one license meaning you can install and run it on one computer only. Also, activation is required by 30-days after Windows 7 installation. Since you've used the product key, you won't be able to activate Windows until you call Microsoft. Here's how to activate via telephone: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/18715-activate-windows-7-phone.html

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
