    Keeps on popping up everytime I start my computer. It says "This copy of windows must be activated with Microsoft before you can log on".
    When I click "OK" to log on, it says the copy is already activated and then throws me back at the Log On screen again.
    I have this computer for a couple of years and I have never experienced such behavior. Any ideas what's going on here?

    You might have a better response if you post or have a moderator move your thread to "Software" as this doesn't seem like it's an Lenovo/IBM problem.
