If you can remember a time when it was ok then you can restore.

Press F8 on the Windows boot screen
boot to safe mode
once loaded - click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools, and then click System Restore.

choose the restore date you think will work

Hope it helps

Is you windows serial genuine??

Bill and his cronies are constantly weeding out fake keys. Your only solution is to change to an undetected key or go genuine.
