742534 2009-01-28 00:29:00 I today installed this stupid update, on my Vista which promptly told me my version of office 2003 Pro is NOT geninune, when i know it is. It is a legit volume license key i have under my name, and it is only installed on 2 machines. What happens if i leave the notification? aidanmaz (7180)
742535 2009-01-28 00:44:00 It'll probably lock you out, or its features will be reduced

Is it yours or from work

Well there's your problem right there. No wonder its coming up with "NOT geninune"
Its ALMOST CERTAINLY liscienced for 1 PC only.

Pretty sure volume licensing has to purchased with a minimum of 5 licenses so that's not the problem as they probably still have 3 more free.

Moral of the story. Don't install any updates that have anything to do with WGA. Guess the economic climate is hitting M$ bottom line so they're going after anything.. Flitesim next??

742541 2009-01-28 04:38:00 Can't you just uninstall the update in add/remove?

System restore should remove it too

742543 2009-01-28 05:12:00 If it's genuine like you say it is, then ring MS and get them to sort it, Won't be a problem if it is. radium (8645)
