[VINCIE007]

Hello,

I'm unable to install updates or install Windows Defender. There has been virus\malware\spyware on the pc.

Was working fine up until a few days ago. It is a purchased pc, sticker on the side and I have the restore cds. Aopen 2.8 celeron with XP Home.

I keep getting the message "Validation Incomplete: Windows Must Be Activated"

Spybot did display the message Windows Security Centre.AntiVirusDisableNotify

I'm unable to activate from system tools.

Tried "%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe /a" but the Product Activation Wizard does not open.

Anyone have any suggestions on how I can resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance !!

Thanks for the fast response.

Currently, I'm not in front of of the pc. I will try this and post my results

ok

LoadLibrary error when I tried regsvr32.exe regwiz.dll

[gerryf]

that sounds like you are missing a dll or a pirated version of windows....who installed this for you?

[VINCIE007]

This is a purchased pc, it has the sticker and the restore cds

[VINCIE007]

I was able to register the dlls with regsrv32

When I go open - run
C:\WINDOWS\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /A
I get hourglass, then nothing

This is a legit copy with the AOpen restore cd, but the cds are just a ghost image

[gerryf]

reboot, windows should allow you to activate as normal

[VINCIE007]

rebooted several times, tried in safemode

%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /A just seems to hang

Wizard does not start and I don't get a message that windows is activated.

I got a message earlier in Spybot that windows control center.antivirusdiablenotify was fixed

If I could even get to the Registration wizard I'd call Microsoft with the product key, but I don't get the wizard to open.

I have have to try a repair, any other suggestions?

Thanks again
