Yes That looks about right.

What is the exact message saying it's fake?

It was the normal message shown when Windows Genuine Advantage decides
that the software is NOT genuine.

However over the last two days I have been following another thread
trying to speed-up Vista and it would appear that turning off certain
services is what upset WGA. These have now been returned to Automatic
and everything is back to normal.

Hi Dave,

Do some reading about Services and Dependencies:

Good luck
