Under system properties there should be a place where it says windows activation at the bottom. the product code that's there is probably not a validated windows 7 code. The reason the computer keep telling you to activate windows is after so many days the operating system will lock you out. Its to help prevent the piracy of the windows 7 operating system.

If you don't have a valid code, need to buy a copy. OEM should be cheapest but you'd probably have to re-install it unless your current setup is also an OEM version.
