bad cd key for XP installation

I just bought an XP home (before ServicePack I think) I can't install it in my thinkpad E120, he showed the blue screen when I try to install after you load all the installation files, but it can be done when I use the CD of xp home SP2, but the new CD key doesn't work do not. (wrong key...) This is a real license how can I install it using this cd key? is - it there anyway can help.i dun want to not lose the key is... TQ

MS released a new block of keys for SP3 only - you can have one of them (even if from your description, it is unlikely)

What OS the TinlPad came with? -What is the licensed version and edition of WIndows according to the COA sticker on the case?

You should consider using the manufacturer to reformat/reinstall the system recovery discs.

    Hi Mohammed'metwally,.

    Please answer this question to get more clarity on this issue.

    • The application or program that you use the partition of the drive?

    This problem may occur if the partition table is damaged or altered. As a result, the recovery partition does not work. I'm sorry to know that you are facing this problem.

    You will not get the unique language anywhere to download setting. You have an OEM computer that comes with the product key integrated into the BIOS. The product key of Windows 8 on new machines is now integrated in the machine. It uses the Secure Boot technology. When you perform a new installation of Windows 8, the installation program ask a product key and will be automatically get it from your system and proceed with the installation.

    As Windows 8 came pre-installed, you must contact the manufacturer of the computer with this problem for more help.

  • Satellite A300-1ED-CD-key for the installation of Vista OEM?

    Hi all!

    I have question. Can I legaly use cd key of windows vista Home premium preinsaled on my Satellite A300-1ED to install a clean oem Windows Vista Home Premium without toshiba or mcafee software?

    Many thanks for the answer!

    You can try to do, but it won't work. This key will not activate your own operating system preinstalled.
    This product key is for the recovery image, that you got with your laptop.

    Many people understand this wrong, especially when they sell old books on eBay and wrote: legal production key is on the bottom. And what to do with this key? You can't do anything with it.

  • Cannot read the KEY for the installation of the recovery disc.

    My Toshiba Satellite has crashed and I have used the recovery disk provided to re - install.  It asks for the product key, but I can't read it on the underside of the computer.  How can I get the key while I am legal with this OS?

    Thank you

    If you use the appropriate manufacturer recovery system, there is a key (key OEM_SLP) built in work and you should not need the key to the sticker.

  • Where can I get a real installation of XP Home product key for purchased disc?

    I have an installation disc at home XP genuine, purchased in a 3 pack for OEM installation, but I lost the certificate of authenticity for this disc (other installed and sticker placed on the PC when sold)-this version has been installed on a PC for the family, but now synonymous with failure of the HARD drive I want to re - install the new HARD drive - where can I get a valid COA / product key for this drive?

    MS sells more than XP.

    Very few legitimate copies of XP OEM in the wild no longer exists, there is probably more counterfeits out there than the real ones, so be VERY careful about your source.

    MS has never sold key without which accompanies the software and or forge anyone.

    All above mean them that it is likely that (assuming that the certificate of authenticity for this machine is lost/illegible), it may be easier to upgrade the computer to Win7 or replace it completely.

  • After disk hard crash, loaded Windows 7 and get "Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations.

    Original title: Windows Vista product key used for any new installation.

    I bought the upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows Vista CD, then had a hard drive crash, then installed a new hard drive. Load the purchased Windows 7 on new hard drive, now I get the message '... Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations. That means that I have to load Vista on the new hard drive, and then update? Both for the end user (paying customer) hostile.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Bad Windows product key during the installation of SP2

    Hi all, I have reinstalled windows XP.
    When I try to update SP2 to the system, mircrosoft told me that I do not use a product key.

    Then I followed the instructoin to download a tool of KeyUpdate and I put the product key in my laptop, it saids is not the correct key for windows I use.
    On-site product keys to compare, it says:

    OS version: Windows XP Professional
    Manufacturer: TOSHIBA
    Model: Satellite M60
    Product key: *-*-*-*-P6R2Y

    It shows the make and model.
    However, I use a Windows Xp Home Edition and this CD key is fine with *-*-*-*-Q6JWG.
    And the product key for my laptop is fine with *-*-*-*-GCFKM.

    Then I download the Windows product key update tool and put in both the product key on the CD and laptop.
    Two of them doesn't work. I want to know how can I update the Service Pack for my windows. Can anyone help? THX!

    What can I do for this? THX!

    Hello

    I read a few threads about similar problems with the BONE key and the key change has always helped
    Sometimes, Microsoft rates the key of the image as incorrect or not valid. Why? I don't know... it's Microsoft you know ;)

    Fact is that the key on the cover of the CD can only be used to activate the software Microsoft Works or OneNote installed on the laptop. The key is not responsible for the Windows operating system.
    The key that could be used with the Win operating system is placed at the bottom of the unit.

    Well, according to your message you used this key and now I m a bit confused
    I think you should make a call to the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country to clear this problem

  • How to activate Win 7 Home Premium SP1 if I have a product key for Win 7 Home Premium without SP1

    I bought the Dell with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium computer. I recently had a problem with the firewall system and found that the only solution is to reinstall Windows. I downloaded .iso with Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 because my current version has been already upgraded to SP1. After that I installed it, it asked me to enter the product key. I have provided the product key, but he says it's a bad touch and I realized that my product key must be for Windows 7 Home Premium without SP1.

    I downloaded .iso with Windows 7 Home Premium without SP1, but I can't install it now because it says that my current version is newer than the one I am trying to install. What can I do about it now? Can I get a product key for Win 7 Home Premium SP1 if I have Win 7 Home Premium? Service pack 1 is free anyway...

    If you have downloaded a Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 integrated, you should be able to use the product key located on the COA sticker in the battery compartment.

    Skip entering product key and complete the installation.

    Click Start, right click on computer

    Click on properties

    Scroll down to the Windows Activation

    Click on the link 'change product key '.

    Enter the product key located on the COA sticker attached to the bottom of your laptop or in the battery compartment. Click next to activate via the Internet.

Where can I find the license key for the Windows 8 that came with the HP laptop. It is currently being upgraded to Windows 10 and current hard drive works fine. I want to replace it with a SSD and clean install of Windows 10

    Hello:

    If you have already upgraded to W10, and it has been successfully activated, everything you need to do is clean the W10 installation media with installation you have created.

    When you get to the Setup screen, you will be prompted to enter a product key or the choice to click on "I don't have a product key."

    You select the option "I don't have a product key" and W10 install and reactivate automatically, because it has already been legally installed on your laptop.

    I had to do it on a couple of PC where I reinstalled it W10 - both when I changed the mechanical drives to SSD.
