How do you tell if a pirated version of Windows is installed? The Geniune Validation does not work because a person could be using a crack.

Is there some kind of tool that can tell?

Thanks.

If ms validation tool doesn't flag it as being a pirate version I would not worry about it.

I have heard a lot of people are unable to validate through WGA - what's going on? Is there a system glitch or an error in the validation service?

Okay thanks for your replies but is there some kind of tool that specifically detects a crack?
