• Re: Question about Windows 7 product key

  After having some problems with my Satellite P500, I had to reformat my laptop.

  Unfortunately however used the product key for windows 7, which is located on a sticker on my laptop and I can read is no longer to reinstall windows. Y at - it an is I can get it back?

  Stand by. I understand that you want to reinstall Win7 but I put t understand your problem. I have the same model of laptop and find out how it works.

  Satellite P500 comes with pre-installed 64 bit Win7.
  Original recovery image is saved on the HARD drive, or you can also create DVDs of recovery for the installation of the OS. When you use the recovery image for Win7 installation you n t need license key.

  So I must ask you: you want to install the Toshiba recovery image or your own operating system installation using the Microsoft installation disc.

• Comples little question about the transfer product key

  I have a HP (SR5518F) computer and origianally comes with vista, I downgraded to xp, but as time passed gradually began to fall so I decided to restore vista but found the restore partition has been broken, not wanting to pay 40 to 50 dollars for the restore disks I just went and borrowed a friends disc reformat It wasn't a full or upgrade, according to me, it was just a restore (a dell one because that's what it says in my computer).

  and basically because of this I can not activate with its original product key, but I got an upgrade to windows 7 but I'm sure he checks for activation, it would be possible to activate and or upgrade with this situation?

  You cannot use a Dell recovery disk on an HP computer.

  Spend the money on the HP recovery disks:

  http://welcome.HP.com/country/us/en/contact_us.html

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  Hello

  You can use this Recovery Partition to reinstall Vista to his new condition with the right edition of Vista.

  This recovery partition was photographed on your hard drive by HP during the manufacturing of the factory.

  You press F11 on startup to start the process of recovering back to factory settings.

  Here is the information about HP.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?DocName=c00809678&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&product=18703

  If the recovery partition is damaged, you can buy HP's Vista recovery discs for a small fee.

  If HP's Vista recovery disks, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

• A Windows XP product key will be recognized to activate one installation of Windows 7 Professional

  A Windows XP product key will be recognized to activate one installation of Windows 7 Professional

  Windows 7 uses own unique product key, Windows XP product key can activate Windows XP.

  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? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

• My laptop was stolen, but I have the Windows 7 product key. Can I disable it?

  IM NOT ASKING IF I TRANSFER PRODUCT KEY ON ANOTHER COMPUTER!

  IM WONDERING NOT IF I CAN FOLLOW USING THE COMPUTER WIN 7 PRODUCT KEY!

  If you know the correct product key, you can block the user in use- but it won't stop them reformatting and reinstalling using recovery disks from the manufacturer to reinstall using the OEM_SLP key - and it would also prevent your use your laptop must be returned.

  You must contact one of the centers of activation and inform them of the keys and the circumstances.

  They will then issue a global block on the key (which can take a long time) which will result in any attempt to validate or activate any system with this key, which gives a non-genuine message on the desktop - it will NOT prevent the use of the system, and it will NOT stop the user both take steps to steal the data and/or reformatting/reinstall.

  Also note that the key on the COA sticker on the case of the machine is not normally the one in use,- and if the key OEM_SLP is still in use, MS can take no action at all, as thousands of others would be affected.

  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.

• Get the 'Message (unacceptable)' error while activating my Windows 7 product key.

  * Original title: product key

  When I want to active my windows 7 it ask me to enter the product key, but I can not enter the number (0) and I have this

  Message (unacceptable character)
  

  I've updated since an activated copy of Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1, then I decided to reinstall using either the. ISO file, reset the player's PC or recovery, but I am prompted to enter a product key:

  Click on that later

  Windows 10 automatically reactivates in the coming days.

  Things you should know:

  • A Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 product key cannot Activate Windows 10. Windows 10 uses its own unique product key.
    
  • By default, the versions of Windows 10 are previously entered, which means, you don't have to enter a product key and should not be invited to enter one as long as you upgraded a activated License of Windows 7 or Windows 8 or 8.1 of Windows or Windows 10 Preview build.
     
  • If you perform a clean installation on the first attempt, you will have to start from an activated installation of Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1.
    
  • If you are prompted to enter a product key, click on Do this later and give it a few days, 10 Windows will be activated automatically.
    
  • Activation servers may be overwhelmed at the time due to the volume of updates, so give it some time if you get an error of the type ()0XC004E003, 0x8007000D, 0x8007232b or 0x8007007B) 10 Windows will activate eventually as long as you upgrade by using the appropriate method.
    
  • It does not need to know your product key Windows 10, read "Understanding Product Activation in Windows 10:

  Figure 10 Windows Product Activation:

  In previous versions of Windows, when you have installed a version upgrade of Windows, if you want to reinstall the upgrade version, you had first reinstall permissible version where you upgraded, reactivate, then upgrade again and reactivate again.

  With Windows 10, this is no longer the case. Once you have upgraded to Windows 10 and enable, you can simply create a bootable copy on DVD or USB and reinstall all Windows 10 without having to reinstall the release candidate and it automatically reactivates.

  Quote:

  "10 keys Windows handles differently. When you migrate to Windows 10 via Windows Update to 8.1 Windows or Windows 7, the process saves your eligible hardware and OS computer with a Microsoft Product Activation Server. The device is considered as a device Windows 10.
