Make sure that you visit the site while in Internet Explorer, otherwise it will ask you do download a small program onto your computer in order to validate.<img src="http://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2009/11/validatewindows7_thumb.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Method 3 – Control PanelThe third way to check for genuine Windows 7 is to go to the Control Panel. Click on Start, then Control Panel, then click on System and Security, and finally click on System.<img src="http://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2009/11/genuinewindows7check_thumb.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Then scroll all the way down to the bottom and you should see a section called Windows activation, which says “Windows is activated” and gives you the Product ID. It also includes the genuine Microsoft software logo.<img src="http://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2009/11/genuinemicrosoftsoftware_thumb.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />So, in conclusion, if you have bought a copy of Windows 7 from a shady local computer dealer or off eBay for a reduced price, you may want to check and make sure the product key is actually valid and not counterfeit!</blockquote>
