Did Microsoft advise you on the next possible course of action? It sounds to me like you might need to buy a new licence.

I quickly googled up that code and came up with this: http://www.wiki-errors.com/wiki-errors.php?wiki=0xc004e003

It tells something about system file errors and incomplete installation, etc. Maybe there was a problem with your installation so you may want to try to re-install again and see.

badrobot's wiki link may be right. If it doesn't help, I would have my computer on, with all papers with numbers and codes available, and phone Microsoft. They do miracles.

It's possible you've been hacked somehow, that's a crime, and quite another matter. Unlikely, I think.

Do let us know what happens. Best of all.
