"Does anyone know if i can make my windows genuine by somehow entering this validation key"... Yep. Dl RockXP4.exe or XPPID.exe, push in your legit activation key and then go to Windows Update site - it will activate the key. Maybe. If the legit key is for a different type of OS [OEM, full retail, vol licensing..] then you must do a Repair Installation with the cd.
