  You will need to purchase a license/disk/upgrade Windows 7 product key.

  Microsoft sells more Windows 7 and you would have to buy from Amazon, etc.

  There was a free upgrade offer, but it expired a long time ago:

  "The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program works on June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option. »

• Purchase new product key for Windows 7

  I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 on a computer by using the copy of the standard ISO I downloaded from Microsoft. Unfortunately, seems to have misplaced my product key and you will need to buy a new one. However, it seems that, with the release of Windows 8, Microsoft has removed the possibility to buy new keys for Windows 7. I'm not ready to update this particular machine for Windows 8 at this time. Is it possible that I can buy a new product key without buying a DVD of Windows 7? Thank you.

  Unfortunately, digital downloads are no longer available through Microsoft for some editions of Windows 7. You can always buy Windows 7 Professional from Microsoft Store.

  If you want another other than Windows 7 Professional edition, you must buy from a third party such as amazon.com

• Microsoft Store not to issue new product key for Windows 7 Ultimate, but it is has been fully paid for

  I bought a laptop Sony Viao on 19 October 2012.  This laptop came pre-installed with Windows 7 Professional.  I used the ease of upgrade to upgrade Windows at the ultimate addition.

  Since October 19 Microsoft doesn't have to issue a new serial number of the product.  My account status indicates that the order is underway.  It does not help to make a call of support for the call numbers eventually gets cut off, because it seems that the Microsoft call center staff is completely clueless about how to solve my problem.
  They have the audacity to tell me to buy a new update.  When I try to activate I just invited to enter a new product key that the existing key is not valid.
  I'm at the point where I'll try to find a pirated product key, because I WILL NOT BUY a new product key and pay for something that I'm supposed to have.  I put challenge Microsoft to report me to tell them I'll be using a pirated key until they solve this problem.
  For the moment is Microsoft who stole money from me, and I'll just steal it back.
  I tried to get help, but your support infrastructure is just completely and totally unnecessary.

• install the new product key for windows 7

  answers provided did not work. Someone a bad version of Windows 7 on my computer. I don't have my original activation code any longer. I have the working activation keys that are valid. How can I activate a new key for windows 7?

  These keys work product can be Volume license Windows 7 licenses. Their use outside your organization could be in non-compliance. Please contact your IT department or helpdesk if you have home use rights to use.

  Otherwise, you might have to purchase a new license of Windows 7.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC?

• Buy a new product key for Age of Empires III?

  I want to test my courage online, but it seems that I can not access my old account. I would like to know if I can buy a new one, or maybe just to buy a new game? If so, I prefer to transfer my old civilizations of solo and others in the new game. How would I do that?

  «.. . It seems that I can not access my old account. »

  Exactly, what is, or isn't it? Do you have still the original disks and the key code, or

  are you just had a connection problem on site (is still available online) ?

  -You can buy the collection of AOE 3 to the Humble store, or steamed, but it's a bit expensive atm.

  They're probably between 30 and 50% from time to time however.

  -Alternatively, you probably buy the game from e - bay, or similar. I got mine from a pawn shop.

  This game is old enough not to have to worry about the key is limited to the original purchaser code

  like many games these days.

  If you still have old games save file you will be able to exploit this information after having re-installed the game.

  Save the original file, or rename temporarily (I simply add a 1 is at the front of the name).

  In Win7 the games user folder is located in-

  User\Documents\My: Age of Empires 3

  -This game has a lot of things in the folder, so it is best to copy everything in the old folder

  in new game folder.

  Just allow him to replace all or rename the new folder for backup and copy the old folder of my games.

  Restore the original name and your progress should be available.

  [EDIT: I just create an account, and it seems there are still some activity.] You need the original CD/DVD

  This corresponds with the CD key that you have installed the game with when using a basic version disk of

  [the game, so if you don't have the key or the original diskettes, you can buy a new copy].

  This means that you must install the original version of Windows shipped with your computer if you are not Windows 7. Otherwise, you will need to set up or ask a family friend or a member of the family gift that you register.

  If you know a student, you could ask to purchase a license at price reduced for you.
