  We have bought Windows Vista Ultimate Edition for my husbands custom desktop and installed fine.  We had a House as the fire smoke and soot damaged all of our electronic and information technology.  The CDs and the codes were very good and we are trying to continue to use the software and get the above error.  How can I fix without buying new software?

  Thank you!

• Error: 0210 stuck key 19

  Hi all.

  My Lenovo computer is dΘmarre. When I hit the Party think butten fast enough, the screen appears with four options, such as retrieve etc.. However, as soon as I'm in this screen of my laptop starts beeping and gives ERROR 0210 Stuck Key 19 press on after 9 seconds to Setup.

  The keyboard did not work at the time by pressing F1 was not possible.

  After 10 minutes my computer has suddenly started once and I could enter my password normally. However, after 1 minute everywhere ' p appeared.

  As it seems that the p is stuck, I cleaned the keyboard, but do not solve the problem.

  After that, I completely removed the keyboard and mouse. However, that was not also to solve the problem.

  Do you have an idea what to do?

  Thank you

  If other people are having the same problem:
  The solution (for me) seems to be disconnecting the CMOS for a night (more than 8 hours). In other words, remove the BIOS battery. If problems still occur, maybe replace the cmos battery.

• error 0210: stuck key 7B

  Hello

  I just upgraded to the most recent updated to Microsoft Update on an IBM Thinkpad T41. A reboot is required, and now I get error 0210: Stuck Key 7B. It doesn't seem to be a stuck key. Help, please!

  Thank you

  Thank you for your quick response. Pressing F2 @ bootup get past the error screen frozen, so thank you... but my keyboard was still unresponsive, so I couldn't go in the BIOS to make changes.

  I also called phone support, which was difficult to understand other than to say supply market, it must be a hardware problem, or press ctrl/alt/delete (on a keyboard doesn't respond).

  Finally I quoted me IBM, which offers only machines still under warranty, which mine is not in favor.

  I finally solved this problem caused by changes in software update... and it wasn't not by replacing the keyboard. I think I can be an asset to the Microsoft Team and plan on sending my resume for review.

  Thank you

• error 0210: stuck key 2B - thinkpad t61 + windows 7 32 bit

  "Whenever I turn on the system I get this error 0210: stuck key 2B. If I press the ESC key, then she starts the operating system windows 7 and also after starting, if I open any ms word document, key # gets automatically in a hurry and I could see characters # continues typing in the doc, he started only after installing the w7 in my thinkpad. Can anyone suggest me if it is a failure of keyboard or operating system issue. This is repeated even after I clean the keyboard and then turn it on again. What happens in the bios, I hear a continuous even in the bios beep as if some button get all the time. So please let me know what I need to change the keyboard everything or just reconnect it or something else is under way. Please help me, I wonder why this problem began immediately after I installed Windows 7. If its an OS problem, am I get the beep sound in the bios, so I think its definitely not the prob of os. something wrong with the keys isn't. Any suggestions or advice are appreciated, I ran the diagnostic of the HD, he took.

  Thank you

  manu555,

  If this happens in the BIOS as you note, that does anything have to do with the operating system.   As suggested from GMAC-R60, this indicates that the keyboard be bad or have a bad / intermittent connection to the system board, or something on the card system goes wrong.

  I will try:

  Checking the connection of physical keyboard:

  Remove and disconnect the keyboard - inspect the plug keyboard for any damage or visible corrosion.  Plug back in carefully and try again.  If the problems are still occurring, try...

  Clearing CMOS and reset the BIOS by default - sometimes you get somewhat stuck causing an abnormal condition:

  Remove the battery & AC adapter / CC.  Press and hold button power several times for an account of 5 each time.   Join AC and restart the computer.    Go into the BIOS and reloading the default values and save.  (there is an option to restore the default settings).  Stop.  Equip your battery and restart.

  Try to replace the keyboard - you can communicate with the service and order a keyboard replacement out of warranty or a local business partner of source on (if there are retailers of warranty allowed in your area, they will have the keyboard in stock or be able to order it).   Alternatively, check sales online - ebay, etc as you wish.

  If none of these steps solve it, so my next suggestion would be the system board, but I think it's rather unlikely.

  Best regards

  I have the same problem, and I think that MS is absolutely unjust:

  1. I have legal copy for about 2.5 years and had no problem with activation. MS changed something in MY SYSTEM VALID without telling me! If not how could having windows change my behavior?

  2. now I have to prove that my copy is legal - also I can't prove it, because I'm registered anno, so the key "is in use" - of course, it is! by me. (I am "punished" because I wanted to act according to the needs.)

  3. I tried to get help for my problem - no way!

  4. it seems that the only solution is to buy AGAIN the softwrare I already paid for. But that money is not due, so I'm not paying for what is legally mine. I'll look for other OS - perhaps LINUX to replace Vista. I'm sorry, I get fed up with the problem generated by MS!

• Windows activation error: the product key you entered cannot be used to activate Windows on this computer.

  Activate Windows 7

  I would like to ask questions about how can activate my correct windows, I tried to activate it but he said to me (the product key you entered cannot be used to activate Windows on this computer) I don't know what I have to do?

  Windows product ID: 00426-068-2964761-86079

  Recently, there have been a rash of product keys for Windows 7 purchased from auction sites appear here as not authentic.  They appear to be related to this HROnline HrOnline code: 0xC004C4A2. If you have purchased a key of a web site selling auctions (like eBay), please understand that the seller would have sold this product to several people key, causing the key more on the blacklist. These keys were never intended for resale; they were intended for the software development or assessment depending on the program that they were obtained through. If you have purchased one of these keys and it became not genuine with the above code, you must purchase a new license for windows 7. Try to validate by going to www.microsoft.com/geniune and follow the links provided to repair windows.

  Added note. You have only a limited amount of time (45 days I think) filing a claim with the auction sites. Stay away from these keys, if you purchased a key that has turned non-genuine and are within 45 days of purchase file a claim. There are publishers of legitimate software on auction sites, but if it sounds too good to be true then don't buy it.

  Things to watch for.

  Recently reported several cases of blocked MSDN subscription product keys packed with legitimate research media. I can not stress enough to save your packaging, media and reception, if you buy software such as this to appeal to the Bank, you bought it and report it to www.microsoft.com/piracy.

  If you purchased a product key, with or without DVD or packaging of a sale auction web site (e.g. eBay) or any other person or seller and this could be a product key MSDN Subscritpion because your key has been blocked, you can check a few things.  If you have received your key with the physical product go to www.microsoft.com/howtotell and check your product.  However, some counterfeit software is if convince you may not be able to identify it as such.

  To check your PID the Win Key Press and have a break at the same time or open system properties in Control Panel, scroll to the activation section and look at the PID.  It will look something like this: 1234567-12345-067-54321.  The part that you are interested in is the section to three figures.  If it matches or is in one or two digits from the examples below, you probably have a "non-destinee for resale" MSDN subscription product key

  Suspect: 065, 066, 067 068 for Windows 7 Ultimate edition, 220 area for the professional and the 230, 231 area for Home Premium.  There are probably others, but they should be close to those posted.

• Windows Activation error - the product key you have entered can only be used in certain countries or region.

  The product key you entered only can be used in some country or region. Activate windows where you bought it or buy a new product key.

  I bought an Asian copy of the South of windows 7 in Malaysia 3 years ago and it has worked very well, recently I went to Singapore and decided to format my laptop and do very little maintenance, but now its gives me this rubbish, I am still in Southeast Asia, what I really need to go back to Malaysia to install it? seems very very annoying.

  some licenses are geoblocked. You can try activating the phone and speak to a representative of activation and see if they will activate it for you.

• Activation error: "Invalid product key".

  invalid product key message

  If you mean that you can not activate automatically, try to do it manually:

  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain the situation, but it's the same PC and only installed on this PC.  They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista.

  I hope this helps.

• W500 Stuck Key error on startup with Thinkvantage key

  Hello.  I have a W500 with a 2nd hard drive through the Bay of cart.  I installed Win2008 Server Standard on the 2nd disk.

  When I boot (cold or hot), the machine and press the blue Thinkvantage button to get the menu of boot options, 90% of the time I hear a few beeps and then see the error "0210: Stuck Key 1 c" and told me to press F1 to go into the BIOS (why I want to go into the BIOS to fix this (, it's beyond me... thanks for the informative error message Lenovo and the reason why or where I have to go into the BIOS).  The 10% of the time I get to the menu, I press F12 so that I can choose an alternative boot and THEN device when I hit ENTER I get beeps and a similar or the same error on a go in the BIOS via F1.

  Now, the W500 is connected to a docking station/Port Replicator Lenovo support.  I do not exactly have the model # handy.  If I boot with the W500 disconnected the Replicator, the failure rate drops between 90% and on 25%...meaning, I press the blue button, I get the menu options of what I want to do, I press F12 to go to boot options, I select a drive, I hit ENTER, and everything is fine.

  It's weird.  I played with this laptop for hours with all kinds of combinations with or without the docking station, the number of times that I push button blue, cold / warm boots, etc.  There seems to be no rhyme or reason... that the failure rate decreases somewhat when you use is not the Replicator.  However, I really need to use the Replicator (I guess I could get Win2008 starting up and then anchor it but this still does not resolve the problem).

  First of all, Yes, I need to use the blue Thinkvantage button because my main drive is Windows XP and Server 2008 do not share the same boot manager.  Second, there is no other connected USB devices that can cause the machine to panic thinking that this isn't a boot (like my external drive) device.  Thirdly, the settings in the BIOS on the boot priority are a bit out of place because the blue Thinkvantage button is supposed to replace... but in the case you are wondering it is on cd/dvd first of all, 0 then, drive 1 third.

  Any ideas or have you seen this?  This error or problem occurs only when I press the Thinkvantage button... which means, if I just restart my XP disc starts just dandy.  But every now and then I need to start on my drive Win2008.

  Thank you very much in advance for your help!

  -Eric

  Eric, welcome to the forum,

  I don't know exactly why you get the key message stuck, maybe your pushing too early or too long?

  Why do not forget you the ThinkVantage button and just press F12 when the message «to stop the startup...» "watch, this will take you directly to the start menu and faster.

  Hope this helps

• Activation error code: 0xC004C003

  What is the error of activation Win7: 0xC004C003? I get this whenever I try to activate Win7 on my DELL laptop. He also tells me that I have an invalid product key. How can this be? I use the product key that came with my software Win7 DVD!

  If your Windows 7 is an upgrade, do you have it installed on a computer with an earlier version of Windows? Upgrade software allows not a version upgrade of Windows 7 on a hard drive Virgin must be activated.

  Are you sure that you correctly type all the letters? Look at B and 8 G and 6, etc..  Product keys are not 1, I, O, or 0.

  Using the right key of Windows 7? A key for XP or Vista will not work with Windows 7. A Home Premium key does not work with Ultimate, etc..

  Call Microsoft use the manual phone Activation

  If you have trouble activating Windows 7 you can call Microsoft to activate it by following these steps:
  1. with the operation of Windows, click Start, then in the search box type: slui.exe 4
  2. press enter on your keyboard
  3. Select your country.
  4. Select the telephone activation option, then dial the given number and hold for a real person.
