It seems my beta version of Windows 7 is not genuine. Next Time I’ll just torrent
an .iso from the internet instead of getting it from TechNet. Doh!
Actually, it seems I hit the bug that affects all beta builds. I accidentally
set my clock forward a year (don’t ask), which is after this beta expires. An
honest mistake on my part, but the question is how the hell do I prove it’s now genuine?
At the moment there is no Genuine Advantage application for Windows 7, so if this
starts causing me grief I might have to reinstall Windows. Hopefully I can just
change the product key. We shall see.
