Hopefully can find a few answers here. I have a laptop that I pretty much just use for browsing the net. I bought it from someone, who loaded XP onto it.
It all ran fine, until recently it suddenly came up saying that the version of windows that it is running is not a genuine version, and I might be using counterfeit software etc.
Is there anything I can do? The only option it comes up with is to buy ($275) the OS. I am really hoping that there is a much cheaper or simple option.
I am also a little concerned, because I am about to purchase a rebuilt PC which is showing the same message.
Thanks :)
