Windows 2000 fails authentication with original CDs

[Guest]

My toshiba7220 fails microsoft authentication check with valid installation
CDs as supplied by Toshiba. Win NT4 and Win 2000 are both supplied over 4
CDs. I wanted to download Win2000 service pack upgrades but the Microsoft
software validation fails (&%$@!) no matter how many times I try it.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Go to www.microsoft.com/genuine and revalidate. Reboot your computer after
this is done.
Let us know us if this fixes the issue.
Sometimes revalidating and rebooting correctly syncs the Windows library
files.

If not, try this:

Please click start, then run, then type in "wgatray.exe /b" then press
enter.
After that, log off and log back on.

If still no resolution, then:

Please follow this simple troubleshooting procedure:

1. Download and install the MGA Diagnostic Tool:

on the "Validation" tab and then click on "Copy to Clipboard".
