    Contact somebody who knows a lot about computers. I got the same message on mine, did a few simple procedures, that were recommended, it's OK now. Forgot exactly what I did.

    call and ask the store for the Key a set of numbers you can use to register your windows operating system . I'll bet they loaded a boot leg copy , I hope you didn't pay a lot for the repair .
    Look around its possible you already have the numbers

    Go back to the repair place and ask(tell) them to fix it. If they won't do it, sue them in Small Claims Court (no attorneys involved there) for both the cost of installing a new Windows program and the cost of the 'repair'.

    Go to the Window's store and ask or call them. I have a Mac, so I couldn't help you there.
