[Simply Computers] Re: BLOCKED OPERATING SYSTEM

 

Microsoft products that are beyond 30 days of trial dont start anymore. They remain at a blue screen with the request of activation. They dont even start in safe mode anymore.
If this is happening to you, you have two options activate it or remove it.
If its a BSOD post more details.

At the right bottom there’s a message “Windows 7, Build 7600. this copy of windows is not genuine. I tried to restart so many times and suddenly there’s a message asking for reactivation.
