• Windows 8 Pro key does not work after changing HARD drive

  I had bought a Lenovo machine without installation of the OS and installed a Windows 8 Pro (and not an upgrade).

  After activation ( laptop settings-> activate Windows ) and control, the copy of Windows has been properly activated.

  The machine worked fine for 7 months before the hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. (Without recovery).

  On installation the same Windows 8 Pro on the new HARD drive again, it shows " this key did not work." "If please check and try again or try a different key"

  Please suggest a solution to this problem.

  If my copy of Windows would have been an upgrade version, it would not have worked the first time.

  Have you bought a copy of manufacturer of OEM of Windows 8 Pro system? Because there was no full version boxes retail copies of Windows 8 Pro. The following work around to try to see if it works with your copy and then try the phone activation;

• After changing hard drives on my Toshiba laptop, won't activate Windows Vista.

  I have two laptops Toshiba Satellite, I bought new. Due to hardware failures, I changed the hard drive of a laptop in the other. Everything works fine, but now the Panel / System states that I have two days until automatic activation. He also said whenever I try the option activate the invalid product key! The Microsoft product Authenticity sticker is more readable on the laptop where the hard drive was born. In question operating system is Vista Home Premium 64-bit. Help, please!

  original title: activation problem?

  You can buy a full license of Windows 7 and install it, but make sure that your computer meets the Windows 7 system requirements

  You need a qualification license Windows to upgrade; you don't when you moved the hard drive.

  You don't say what the problem is with the hard drive of the laptop you are trying to install this hard drive Vista preinstalled from the other laptop in.

  If you bought them at the same time, two thay have Vista Home Premium on them?

  Why not use this laptop you try to go there and his original hard drive, if still OK.

  If its hard drive is not OK > you can then put this "non-genuine" hard drive in it > reinstall the correct version of Vista that is pre-installed on the notebook computer > then purchase an upgrade to Windows 7 If you wanted to.

  One of the posters put this Information in place in the Forums:

  And most importantly make sure that Toshiba has Windows 7 drivers available for your model laptop activate Windows 7 works correctly.

  See you soon.

• After changing hard drives, I get an error message that says: I need a full version disc windows genuine

  Original title: replacement hard drive configuration issue

  My hard drive crashed and I can't access anything anyone on this subject. I have a second hard drive that was used for additional storage only. I'm doing this second walk my master drive. After changing the cables, jumpers, the bios settings to show as the master I am using the Windows XP disk, I try to put in place. I get an error message that says: I need a full version disc windows genuine, not a disc to upgrade to. When I bought the computer it came with Windows ME preinstalled and there was no disk that came with the machine. When I went to XP apparently, I bought a version upgrade, not the full version. Is it possible to get a cd of microsoft, or download a file, which can help get this another hard drive mounting correctly?

  Thank you

• Windows Update does not work after the hard drive has been replaced

  Hello
  I have the same problem, replaced in my Toshiba HD, rebuild from Sysimage, Windows Update does not work. A ran "fix the problem with the Microsoft Windows Update is not working.
  Problem still exist.
  The message that I got while trying to update: "Windows Update cannot currently check updates,
  because the service is not running. "You may need to restart you computer.
  Stop and then restart the service, still no luck.

  I ran Windows troubleshooting. He finds two problems with Windows Update components, it corrects.
  The problem still exists.

  The other post:

  Another interesting fact:
  After the reconstruction the new disk, user account control does not recognize Windows programs.
  for example: execution of Perfmon.exe, the Publisher is unknown! However, when I download the program Windows FixIt, Publisher is recognized as Microsoft Windows. It seems that user account control does not recognize the Windows programs that had found the new HD, but acknowledges those who is downloaded from the internet.
  I guess there is a problem with the license, Windows was preinstalled on the Toshiba and replace the hard drive could have caused a few conflicts of licensing.

  The same problem. Cloned old HD on a larger hard drive. Everything worked perfectly except NO indexing and update WITHOUT windows - the two recurring problems that seem to appear on the forums after a change of hard disk.

  INDEXING resolved with change to "Intel rapid storage technology." Google what I put in quotes, choose the Download Center and get the specific to your OP and the controller software.

  UPDATES have been a little more frustrating. The microsoft .fixes and convenience stores were without help.

  Go to control panel / system and Maintenance / administration tools

  Select Services

  Stop the Background Intelligent Transfer Service

  Stop Windows Update

  In 'My Computer' go to Windows / Software Distribution

  Right-click "DataStore" folder. Rename it to Datastore.old

  Rename the folder 'Download' Download.old

  Return to Services and restart the Background Intelligent Transfer Service and Windows Update.

  Look for the updates. It will take some time because you deleted the database.

  I hope this helps!

  Retrieve the laptop using the Toshiba recovery disc after the HARD drive was replaced?

  The operating system which is part of the Toshiba recovery image has already been activated so the new activation should not be possible and necessary!

  Don t know what is the problem here, but I recommend you to reinstall the operating system once more using Toshiba Recovery disk (I hope that you have created in the past)

• Windows 7 Windows update does not work after replacing hard drive

  Win7 Home Premium and HP Pavilion DV6-2150US.  Failed hard drive.  I bought a Seagate 500 GB replacement (original drive was 250 GB) and used my purchased HP re - install DVD to re - build Windows and reinstall the OEM software on the new hard drive.

  Everything starts fine, but he won't deal of Windows updates (. e. is a big red X on the screen of windows update).  I tried Microsoft "Mr Fix it" download - but it error and none of the other suggestions Microsoft not work either.  When I had the chance to talk with a MS tech support person, she suggested that somehow windows on the new drive is not authentic, etc...  Although windows on the new drive hard indicates that its active and authentic... is there some kind of checking a number of the hard disk 'really' activate windows?

  Just to make sure that my reinstall was not corrupt, I deleted the new hard drive and began in everywhere... I have the exact same result... it boots fine, but will not update through windows update.  The only other change to the laptop was that I had better buy double the memory to 8 of 4 when I bought 2 years ago... once again, do not know if there is a kind of material exchange limitation before disabling the windows software.

  Help, please!  I'm really stuck.  THX JimmyC

  Thanks for your post... I solved my problem by installing the update driver Intel rapid storage through this link:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02219204

  I suppose that as long as the hard drive is lower 250Gig you need not the new driver.  But when I replaced my hard drive failed with a disc 500gig hard - when I did restore HP to Win7 and the OEM software from the dvd, I bought - it put the storage driver original in Win7 - which works very well with a 250 GB drive, but causes the windows update doesn't work is not for readers more than 250gig.   When I installed the driver from the link above file, Windows Update started working - and you can imagine there are many, many fixes since my PC has been restored to original Win7 - doesn't not even Win 7 SP1.

  I hope it helps someone else... thank you for your message.  JimmyC

• Windows 7 says this isn't authentic after changing the HARD drive and can not activate

  After a Windows Update I received a notice that my version of windows was not authentic, which is false because I had windows on my laptop because I got it 4 years ago. Recently, I had to have the changed HARD drive as it corrupts. Installed new HARD drive and partition it a space in which the old files to hard drives. Seemed to turn very well when HARD drives were exchanged and windows installed on the new drive until windows update. My Microsoft certificate key is passed out to illegible but I don't have the product key for the OEM version. Any help would be great, thanks.

  If Windows was preinstalled on your computer, you can enable using the code from the sticker on the computer.  If you can not read the sticker more, you will need to contact the computer company he built.

  If you purchased Windows from the store, you can enable using the code of the case/box/CD.  If you can't read it, you must contact the retailer who sells to you.

• Upgrade to Windows 8, but I need to install a new hard drive first

  Hello

  I'll be upgrading my laptop's current (under Windows 7 Pro) to Windows 8 Pro for $40 on October 26. Before you install Windows 8, I'm going to install a new hard drive in my computer. I need some help on how I can do this...

  Is it possible for me to install the new drive hard while I am upgrading. I plan to do a clean install anything. If so, how should I go to?

  Thank you very much for your answer.

  Mike

  Create the backup of the image that your computer is now (with Windows 7) before installing Windows 8. If anything should go wrong then just restore Windows 7.

  I would like to disconnect the LAN cable and any other unnecessary internal or external device before the upgrade. If all goes well then connect the local network and activate Windows 8.
