Activation of Windows 7 Home Premium Retail Version complete
Nice day...
I have a question of kwik on my Windows 7 Home Premium Retail Full Version. I didn't install it since July of 2013.
I bought it in May 2011, brand new at sears.com. During this period of May 2011 - July 2013, I had it installed
on, in total, 3 different offices computers (NOT at the same time... Still, I uninstalled Windows 7, as with all Microsoft OSs, before installing it
on another system).
In July 2013, I upgraded my motherboard and I had more money I decided to buy another Windows 7
Home version Premium OEM full for this motherboard. Yes, for a little over a year, I had a 'spare' Windows 7 Home
Premium full retail version disk. I contacted Microsoft support by phone, chat, e-mail, etc. over the past
year to see if it is genuine. I have not kept a full track of results, but 'about' just less than
50% of contacted Microsoft experts say that it is authentic and about a little less than 50% say that it is authentic, BUT it must be
activated by phone. Unfortunately, some even said that it was genuine and non-genuine and that it is authentic,
I have to pay about $150 for one year of support. Who is not called a scam? The issue is, basically, can I use it
drive for the full retail Version that I bought it like?
It works perfectly, the product key is valid, but half Microsoft agents I spoke on this subject, although they all say that it is authentic, the other half say it is valid, but I have to pay a "tax of support" to activate it.
Have a great day!

Full retail version
Can be transferred to any computer and reactivated as long as it is removed from the previous computer, it is installed on.
OEM System Integrator
The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system
Some people have gotten the reinstalled and reactive without problems, it is just that, regarding the license agreement, his is not consistent.
As for the authenticity of the it, Yes, its true, how to use it is another matter. As noted by the above rules, if you have been move to different systems and motherboard, it is used in accordance with the license agreement. It does not have the same rights of transfer as the full retail version, you bought originally.
Another question would be, if these rules are applied? NO.

I am trying to upgrade to Windows 7 on my Lenovo x 200 tablet which is currently under Vista 64-bit. My first attempt was with a version of Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit which, once started let me choose the upgrade option but then I notified (obviously) that would work to upgrade Vista 64 bit to 32 bit 7. Since I also have a DVD of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, I moved forward and put this disk to try to upgrade. However, when I run the Setup it goes right to the choose what partition I want to put a new installation, do not allow me the upgrade option at all. Why is this and how do I fix this if I can do an upgrade rather than a new complete installation then I won't lose all my programs and others and end up with a folder of big 'windows.old '?
Which edition of Windows Vista are you attempt upgrade from?
If they editions do not match, you will not be able to make a place in the upgrade:
When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.
If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:
Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition
Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise
Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

If I use at any time update in windows vista home premium upgrade to complete, I need a Windows Vista Ultimate key to activate too?. Please answer
Yes.
You will need to BUY a Vista Ultimate Upgrade product key/license disk
Windows Anytime Upgrade Vista is no longer available; which you always had to pay anyway...
Try to buy Vista Ultimate Upgrade online: newegg, amazon, etc.
Alternatively, try your local computer store.
This isn't for free.

Limitations of re-Activation of Windows 7 Home Premium OEM
I think about building a new PC Core i7 and Windows 7 Home Premium OEM license purchase. I understand that in the future, if I make significant material changes, such as the replacement of the motherboard or the CPU, I re - activate Windows 7.
My questions are:
1 - How many times can I re - activate Windows 7 Home Premium OEM as long as I install it on one PC?
2 are there limitations to the activation of the operating system, as the replacement of the motherboard, processor and hard drive at the same time?Thank you!
1. If you change the motherboard, it invalidates the OEM licensing all together.
-OEM versions allow all upgrades of equipment with the exception of a upgrade to a different model motherboard
The license is linked to the motherboard when its installed and active.2. by phone, then upgrade with wisdom.

Activation of Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
Help, please.Hello.
I have a windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, who began acting in the recent months. It came with a box of "Reinstall Windows" as a title, then "Windows must be reinstalled to activate it. Insert the installation of Windows, CD or DVD into your computer to start the process of relocation. I have a valid key, everything worked fine. I tried the recovery disks, forums and everything else. On that note, I spent a lot of time and I need either a link to re - download floppy disks to install Windows Vista to origin or a set of records sent me. I promise you do not have a code, and if the employee is requesting all the Windows I'll tell them the code, but I'm not so stupid to put it out in the open for all to see.

Problems with Activation of Windows 7 Home Premium x 64
I have a laptop which uses WIndows 7 Home Premium x 64, but the hard drive had a lot of problems that caused me to need to reinstall windows. I burned a disc using the filename of the picture from the Microsoft Web site and reinstalled windows, but my product key is an OEM, the key with no additional backup media and now Windows activation is not letting me to reinstall. The first characters in my key are invalid characters, according to activate windows, so I can't get to the stage where it gives me an option to call to the activation or obtain additional assistance.
What I have to give up this computer or can I get my OEM key work? I prefer not to have to buy a new key of windows if possible...You must have got orange proof of license label in your package
Product key label
The product key label is a white or orange accompanying the installation CD/DVD and a certificate of authenticity (COA) for a product, which contains a 25-character product key. -
Activation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
I reinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium that came with my laptop. After about 2 months, I had a constant black background with the message "Windows 7 Build 7601 this copy of Windows is not genuine" in the lower right corner. Since I got a DVD, how can I activate my Windows. I use a DELL Inspiron laptop. I tried to ask DELL support by they said I must have Windows, so here I am.
Restore you your PC using the recovery partition (if it exists)? If so, you don't have to worry about activation.
But if you used installation media, use this product key in the label of the certificate of authenticity (COA) (now at the bottom of the laptop or in the battery Bay) to install Windows. This will activate the copy.
You can download Windows from the following links:
Alternatively, you can try the link below to order a new DVD of Windows:

Disable the upgrade of Windows Vista Home Premium Retail
Currently, I have installed a retail version of Windows Vista Edition upgrade Home Premium on a desktop computer that is no longer I intend to use. I would like to turn off on this area, before you reformat the hard disk and give the computer to charity, without installing anything on the hard drive. Is this possible and if so, how? Thank you.
Just reformat the hard drive.
You do not contact Microsoft.
Then, as it's a level of detail, you can use it somewhere else.
It may require a reactivation of phone once you install it elsewhere.Pedal. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner

I bought a copy the retail of Windows 7 premium (updated version) upgrade on Vista Home Premium SP2on my 3 yr old HP Pavilion Desktop on 22/10/2009. Vista has been installed at the factory. The PC more than meets all hardware reqs. I tried 4 or 5 times to upgrade the operating system on this PC & it runs fine until the process to halfway in step 5 in the upgrade and stops. I forgot the exact message, but it's like 'cannot be upgraded pc, abandoned process, will now restore the Vista installation. After this x 4-5 in the last seven days, I'm sick of what's going on. I've been building & PC repair & installation, configuration, and upgrade Windows since Windows 3.1 and Dos operating system. The Win 7 installation routine is so demanding that if all the program requirements are not met (for the latter)-it just stops and is abandoned. I've never had this kind of trouble before. NEVER Yes, I use the on-line support docs & Software Advisor compatibility. I've never seen an OS that just works! Absolutely amazing! I also tried this on my computer Lenovo laptop lastnight - same thing!
Hi Jim,.
Thanks for the information. You said you ran Upgrade Advisor several times on both machines. This show no error every time? Also, I would recommend unisntalling any antivirus that you have currently and to help clean up the provided utilities if any, of the antivirus manufacturer. In addition, unplug all unnecessary devices such as printer, network cable or any other devices you have.
I hope this helps!
