The WGA diagnostic tool has been updated to correct this problem seen by some
customers. Please download and execute it from:

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012

After running the tool, please return to Windows Update and try it again.

thank you
but,it did not work. The PID is invalid according to the tool.
I don't know how that's possible.
How can I change the product key? My key is not the same that the wga tool
has
listed
