    This happens when the OS is installed using a KMS Host key instead of the KMS Client key.  You should assign the KMS Client key to the machine, delete the KMS records from DNS, then re-activate the OS.  The KMS Client keys are located here (for Win 7/2008R2): http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793421.aspx
