As someone who had to spend a few hours on the phone with both Microsoft and HP, I am convinced more than ever that this whole WGA is a pathetic joke. The final response from Microsoft, no apology of course, was that the OEM key was....defective.
Oh you too? I've got a good friend who's copy of XP pro which came with an HP laptop started warning him that he was not running "genuine MS software".
He did the online test thing which has you read and enter the info in the inner circle of the CD and the website reported back that the CD was counterfeit!
This company has gone too far in my book.
Honestly its time for a hardcore revolt on these losers.
