Tried to find a solution, hasn't worked, think it might be something else, and I might've been scammed by a friend.
Heres the brief situation...built the new PC...didn't have Windows 7 so buddy offered to install it for me if I brought the PC to his place to install for cheap. So I did.
PC booted up fine, no problems, said it was genuine, I managed to get updates too I think ( don't really pay attention ). Heres the current situation:
OLD PC SPECS
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
AMD FX-4350 19 °C
Vishera 32nm Technology
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 668MHz (9-9-9-24)
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. M5A97 LE R2.0 (Socket 942) 29 °C
HL269DPB (1920x1080@60Hz)
HD RADEON 6450 1 GB DDR3
931GB TOSHIBA DT01ACA100 ATA Device (SATA) 34 °C
1863GB Seagate Desktop USB Device (USB (SATA))
DTSOFT Virtual CdRom Device
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NS95 ATA Device

ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. M5A97 LE R2.0 (Socket 942) 29 °C

2048MB ATI AMD Radeon R7 200 Series (XFX Pine Group) 41 °C

1863GB Seagate Desktop USB Device (USB (SATA))
DTSOFT Virtual CdRom Device

Took this from SPECCY so I hope it's enough.
Anyways, my new and old specs are virtually the same except two things. The GPU and the PSU (OLD = THERMALTAKE 500W, NEW = CORSAIR CS650M 650W)
The problem is, I don't know what's going on. I did install a HD 7770 in between the NEW and OLD, which was a broken card because it kept giving green lines. I installed those HD7770 drivers over the HD 6450, then unistalled and reinstalled the HD6450 afterwards. Thing is, then not long after I got the new GPU (R7 260X) and put it in with the new PSU (both under 1 week old).
Right from the start there has been problems. I don't know if the windows genuine issue was there right at the start, but it was there either at the start or not long after...and since then I've been unable to boot my PC. I would be lucky and restart once and it'd come on, or I'd have to restart it multiple times. I've reinstalled drivers and everything and no luck.
Just earlier today I came back last night from a trip, and I thought that it was the GPU. I clean uninstalled with the AMD Clean Uninstall utility, and rebooted the pc, and it loaded fine (standard VGA driver) at 800x600 then I installed the R7260x driver from the site (the 14.4-- whatever driver from AMD) because I was told maybe my CD from the box had a problem. Thats when the worst happened> All night last night I couldn't get it to reboot at all. Did it about 10 times. I would get a single beep, nothing on screen. I'd get no beeps, keyboard lights go on. I got one time a single beep then 1 long 3 short. Combination of no keyboard lights/yes keyboard lights/no beep/1 beep + black monitor screen. Somehow at one point it booted up with the Windows 7 Logo slightly slanted...too...then somehow miraculously after rebooting another 10 times today it turned on, and said again to run Startup Error...got the following things
windows\system32\slui.exe are not proper
Old Value = 0x1f01df
Error Code = 0x0
Repair action = Access Control Repair
then on startup (this has happened i think a 3rd time thats why i'm posting this now, as i may have been tricked):
Windows Not Genuine
0xC004F057
Did some research and people have said Windows 7 if not genuine screwes your PC up. So my question now is, what is the problem...lol
GPU? GPU driver? PSU? Windows 7?
I can reinstall Windows 7 I have a 100% legit version I got from the school (found out last week in tech class prof said "look you can get free software legitimately")
Hopefully someone can help. This is rather frustrating, and if it is my Windows 7, I'm gonna get this guy cause he's been offering it around to other people too I think
