  Hello

  How do you re-install?

  Do you have or use a sale at retail or OEM DVD?

  I have a hp Pavilion dv7 notebook & I need 2 activate windows, but I can't read any of my key product until I can do? someone help me pls thx

  Hello tiffanybarnes,

  If someone says here allows you to use product key Finder programs, do not take into account their information as the product key these programs on your preinstalled operating system find will be the HP one used for several installations of the plant and will be of no use in these circumstances.

  You will need to contact HP and ask for their help.

  Or a way around this is to buy a DVD recovery HP to reinstall the operating system or use the built-in recovery Partition containing an image of your OS and reinstall Windows.

  No method requires a product key from your part.

• Cannot activate Windows, the product key already in use

  Original title: product key already in use.

  Recently, my computer crashed (power).  Try to avoid problems with my hard drive, I bought the same computer exactly on the line.  I installed my old hard drive on the newest computer and all is well... Except, when trying to activate my Windows Vista Ultimate OS I get the error message "The key of product already in use" Microsoft site confirms that the product key is authentic, but still will not let me activate.  All solutions?

  Your old computer had a "Retail" or "OEM" of Windows installed version?

  OEM versions are related to the 1st motherboard they are installed and can not be activated on another motherboard. The only exception is the 'mother' is exactly the same make / model / part number as the original motherboard.

  Commercial versions can be moved from one computer to another without problem except that the the phone activation may be required.

• Should UHVVHQWLHV I do to activate windows vista, which has already been used on another pc

  I recently removed my hard drive of a computer toshiba laptop that is is no longer in use, but the custom of software windows vista activate as it says it is already in use. But it is not in use on any other pc now. Installation disks are toshiba original restore discs, but that's all I have.

• Problem: I can't activate windows vista even with "phone activation".

  Hello world
  I just re-formatted my computer and now I am asked to activate windows Vista Edition Home Premium x 32.

  The second is a general for the Greece phone number as you have indicated that your country is the Greece. If you dial the number and explain your activation problem and the phone number doesn't work not they may be directly connect you to support or you give a better number to use.

• Re: I need to activate Windows, but my code sticker disappeared

  My computer died for we reinstalled Windows, only problem, it's good, it's activation of the code which
  comes with the computer has disappeared off the coast and stickers all a little weird.

  Microsoft told me to ask toshiba if they can follow what activation code was for my computer (I think that he entered the info series the computer when I got it). I can't find a way to ask Toshiba unfortunately.

  Help? I can't afford to buy it again. I've already paid as part of the computer costs.

  Hello

  > I can't afford to buy it again. I've already paid as part of the computer costs.
  You're right about that. Toshiba laptop with preinstalled operating system and offer when you buy laptop, you pay for hardware, pre-installed software and a license valid for this preinstalled OS.
  Note this product key belongs to the version of the OS pre-installed and is not a kind of universal key that you can use to activate if you use the version of the OS.

  When you buy a new laptop recovery image is saved on the HARD drive as backup. This allows laptop owner reinstall the original image of recovery years begin to use the laptop with factory again.
  In the case where this drive is defective or hat owner installed clean version of the OS this recovery image no longer usable.

  To avoid this, Toshiba has preinstalled small Toshiba Recovery Media Creator to allow laptop owner create a recovery DVD or USB media and backup recovery image.
  This recovery media is the boot device and the recovery image can be installed without any problem.

  If you check document s user manual you got with your laptop, you will see that the entire theme is described here. In other words, each owner of the laptop is informed of this.
  Because of all these reasons, creation of recovery media is very important.

  Back to your problem: after reading your ad I don't know what is your problem exactly and I don't know if the HARD drive is faulty, but I assume that you didn't create this recovery media, right?

  In your situation, you have two options:
  1 to install Windows using the original installation disc for Microsoft, but in this case, you must obtain a valid license
  2 / to install the original recovery image using recovery media.

  Sorry but there is no third option.

• Windows 8 to ask for activation, when it's already done!

  Windows has recently begun asking me to activate windows 8. I already bought this awhile ago and activated. I used my product key to turn it back on and it doesn't work. Says that it is already used by another computer. I don't have this computer to use it. Why, suddenly, be asking me to activate again anyway?

  Try the phone activation:

  1. press the Windows key + X , and then clickrun, and then type: slui.exe 4

  2. then press the ENTER"" key.

  3. Select your "country" in the list.

  4. choose the option "activate phone".

  5. stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.

  6. explain your problem clearly to the support person.

• Activate Windows 7 OEM

  Hi, we use Dell Optiplex PC brand with Windows 7 Professional (OEM) & Windows XP Professional (OEM) version. We already have PCs 1 817 and per month, to buy about 20 new PC. Now, we are facing a great problem in the activation of Windows 7. I describe the scenario briefly for your understanding:

  1. Since the beginning of the arrival of Windows 7 Professional (OEM) in our Organization, we used a clean install of Windows 7 Professional (OEM) on a PC. As it is an OEM version, the windows are automatically activated. Then, we used 'Acronis True Image Home' to create an image of that installation and used to deploy the other PC.

  2. after a few weeks, we began to face the problem "Windows is not genuine" of some screens PC Windows 7 message "Windows is not genuine".

  3. my question is what is the reason for the problem?

  4. as our windows is OEM (each pc also has a certificate of authenticity), probably no need to install an Activation of Windows Server locally or activate Windows Online uses Microsoft server activation key. Am I wrong?

  5. What are your opinions and suggestions about Windows 7 installation & activation for our Organization?

  Please answer me as soon as possible.

  The most common cause/remedy for this type of problem is Intel rapid storage drivers.

  Certainly, we need to see a MGADiag report among the affected machines.

  To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag tool
  (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
  Once saved, run the tool.
  Click on the button continue, which will produce the report.
  To copy the report in your response, click the button copy in the tool (ignore the error at this stage), and then paste (using r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your response.
  -* in your own thread *, please

  Please also state the Version and edition of Windows cited on your COA sticker (if you a) in the case of your machine (or inside the battery compartment), but does NOT quote the key on the sticker!

  If it's the pilots, then force installs of the TSRI drvers on all machines.
