i have bought a copy of windows xp professional in pack it contained 1 cd 1
cd-key and a windows exp booklet all look to be correct and of an original
state it has updated for over 9 months without problems now windows genuine
validation software says there is an error in validating the copy and wont
allow any updates and keeps inerupting any programs that are running
i am wondering if its a
software error and re installing will correct but dont want to spend hours if
there is a quicker way to fix this

Where did you obtain the Windows XP? It sounds like an OEM package, which
should have been provided with some kind of hardware. If you tell us where
you got it, that will provide a clue as to legitimacy.
A second possibility is some kind of infection or infestation. Is both your
AV and anti-malware up to date and do you scan regularly?
