Then is your Vi$ta a pirated version? Is it an OEM or
Retail version? If it's legitimate, contact Micro$oft directly.

This is a typical indication of having installed the RC candidate versionof
SP1 rather than downloading and installing the official released version
from Microsoft.

It's the pre-release version of SP1 that's expiring.

Uninstall your SP1 and install the official one from Microsoft's update
site.
