My system is legal from shop etc.

In computer properties its says something like "Windows activation - status not available"

MS Check gets stuck at green circle.

Windows Update gets error "WindowsUpdate_C0000022" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"

KIS 2010 detect 0 threats...

As bludgard has said, do try to activate by phone.

Once you have activated make a disk image and then you will not have this problem in the future.

As long as your operating system is genuine there should be no problem.

We cannot / do not offer any advice on ways to circumvent the Microsoft activation process.

Just noticed that the link in my previous post was inoperable.In case of any madness or mayhem caused by this oversight,please use link below.

EDIT:I cannot get my linker to function correctly :angry: -Copy and Paste:--->;http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736912(WS.10).aspx

Nerfpl,could resetting your services have possibly thrown a rod in your machine?Phone activation really is a viable option that shouldn't be seen as a trip through Hell with gasoline drawers on.

Keep the team updated,will ya? B)

The following link require the download of a tool. I have not used this and cannot vouch for its safety. Make a backup/image of your machine before running this tool.

How old is this installation?

Has it always done this or is it a recent occurrence?

If you have the Windows disk, have you considered a repair install/re-install?

Have you contacted Microsoft about the problem. They should be able to sort things out with very little problem.

I would agree with -pops-.Reinstall would be best.It will cure a myriad of ills.I know it's a pain,but who doesn't like the feel of a new ride? B)

There would appear by more than once mention of "access denied" in your posts that there is an issue with your administrative rights-for whatever reason(s).

If I understand correctly,your updates are failing?

You just had to fix services related problems?(Protection)

Have you tried Microsoft Security Essentials?

I had paid security suites and with one I couldn't use system restore-an access denied message or some such thing. :blink: One disabled various device drivers. :unsure:

If you can't access to validate your Windows,this must be cleared up,no?

With the OEM I would bet you didn't get an install disk.Could always try a repair install....

Who knows,maybe you will wake up tomorrow to find all is back to normal.I doubt it though.

Your problems may have been caused by malware.

Ensure you have an effective anti-malware program installed such as http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/

Note that you should download this from MS themselves as there are some rogue versions doing the rounds.

Also, if there is anything of any importance on the machine, make sure you have a backup.

Please don't apologise "for bothering". This thread may well help others in the future.

i have Kaspersky internet security 2011 installed, should i install microsoft security essentials too?

No - only use one anti-virus at a time - they can cause big problems if you use two at the same time.
