Had installed Win 7 Pro VL for a project but never activated it and it is beyond the grace period. I did an upgrade to Win 7 Pro Retail but the activation still thinks the system is still VL. Here's the MGA info. This copy of Windows is not genuine. When I try to activate with the retail key I get a key not valid after typing the third letter of the second block of the key. What is the problem and can it be resolved without a total fresh install?
