Can a not for resale version of Windows be transferred to a new PC?

I am currently using an NFR of Windows 8 Pro version and would like to know if I can use it on the PC I am building?

Yes, as long as their is no longer in use elsewhere. You may need to reactivate over the telephone. If it's an NFR version upgrade, you will need to transfer it to a computer that is running a release candidate of Windows (XP, Vista or Windows 7).

Reactivation by phone will be necessary:

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.

  • Can not activate win 8 error "the key provided is not for this edition of windows, use either windows 8 setup or enter an activation key for windows 8.

    OT: Cannot activate win 8 on my laptop due to the change of hard disk.

    Hi all

    I have a Samsung np550p5c-s05in and it came installed with 64-bit Windows 8, later, the hard drive developed a few problems and as I had guaranteed him, they were replaced by a new, but this one came with a victory 8 32-bit that is not enabled. Now, I got the product key of victory last 8 I had so I tried using them to activate, but an error came that said something like

    "The key provided is not for this edition of windows,

    Use the installer of windows 8 or enter an activation key 8 windows. »

    So it was logical that the key I had was for a 64-bit win 8, so I installed win 8 64 bits of an image file and then I repeated the same procedure to enter the key and the same error came once again.

    I would ask so you people to please help me with this, because I have no idea whatsoever what to do next.

    Thanks in advance,

    SamizZy

    All laptops with preinstalled Windows 8.1 are OEM version of the product that are modified by computer makers. You cannot activate a product of retail of Windows 8 with an OEM key.

    Thank you

    No, it doesn't have the right to sell you software NFR and if he hid this information, then its wrong.

    Your best decision is to try to get the refund by the dealer, then report him. If it doesn't, don't threaten them. Simply report them to ebay and report to Microsoft Piracy.

    Make sure that you have received as proof of purchase.

  • Can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop?

    Original title: windows 8.

    Last year, I bought a new desktop computer Acer with windows 8 and installed my windows professional 8.1 on it!

    My question is! can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop because it was purchased with this PC AND how I to get it back?

    I am braking the rules by doing this? the original key was included with the purchase of my new Acer and I should be able to pick it up and install it on another device?

    If I can't, I'll have to buy a new one to upgrade my old windows laptop 7. I'm trying to save money! That's why I ask this question.

    Roger

    No, you cannot transfer the original license that is pre-installed on your Acer, it relates to it because it is an OEM license.

    The OEM of Windows 8 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

    What is OEM software? :

    At the beginning we had some problems with rogue KMS hosts (clients installed with the wrong key, and then they began to behave like a KMS host), but this has been fixed.

    I see activation all requests come to the KMS host.

  • a windows 8 NEW ACER AND the computer will be returned. What should I do to get windows 8 transferred to a new pc? thxs for any help

    BOUGHT AND INSTALLED windows 8 NEW ACER a few weeks ago and now have decided to return the ACER.  What should I do to get windows 8 transferred to a new pc?     can I "return" windows 8?

    thxs for any help

    You must first remove Windows 8 on the computer by restoring it to its factory State. This will allow you to transfer the license to another computer and reactivate over the telephone:

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    ------------------

    Continue to install 8 Windows on the new computer and reactivate by phone if necessary:

    1. press the Windows key + X , and then click run, 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.
