  (Original title: Hi I get this key product and equipment repaired already in use)

  How can I fix? any suggestions please? I can't activate my windows because it says that it has already been used, the cause of this is my equipment got repaired and when he returned he disabled just, please

  I tried to enter my product key for windows, and he just said "this product key has already been used on another computer" but that is the only computer where I installed my Windows 8, I tried the method by which you must contact their office by the number of the machine and you must give them 9 packed numbers and enter this told you on the phone. But I can't contact then given the number of the machine and also I tried to send the technician takes charge, but it did not help, I need help badly please. Thank you.

  Hi Christian,

  I understand that after getting your equipment repaired, you cannot activate Windows 8.

  As the ID of the product gets changed every time the internal components of the machine are modified and when you try to activate Windows it identifies it as a machine to new or different.

  I suggest you contact the support phone or chat for assistance with Windows.

• Product key is already in use - activation of a copy on a new computer.

  Recently, I bought a computer from a big brand. I installed a legitimate copy of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium on it which came with my dads computer, also bought the same brand. The installed fine print, on more than one occasion and has been also validated successfully on each installation. The same disc has been used before that to install and activate a copy of Windows on my dads computer.

  However, my computer broke and after much hassl, he was returned to the company and I am waiting for a refund. I formatted the computer off until it is, including the installed copy of Vista.

  Now, I bought a new computer and installed the same copy of Vista on it. Once again no problems with installation.

  When I came to activate Windows online I met with the message that the product key is already in use. Of searching this forum I found that I was able to activate the copy by phone and so called, followed the instructions and was told that I could not activate this copy that was only to use a computer.

  How can I now go to the activation of the copy that I have on my new computer? If I was told it correctly and it can be installed on a computer, then how is it that a second facility was made and activated on my old and now returned computer?

  Any help would be valuable.

  By purchasing a commercial version, you have an oem version which is forever linked to the origonal PC, and when this PC die so do your vista licenses

• Aspire 5749z who do not accept the windows product key, attached to the back of the laptop

  I installed Windows 10 House. When I went to enter the enclosed code error codes and not accept the key and activate windows 10

  you need to upgrade your version of windows to windows 10 first, then you can do a clean install.

  you don't need to enter any 10 windows product key during installation (if you did the upgrade first).

  Windows 10 will not accept any product key from older versions of windows if you do a clean install, you must buy a windows retail 10.

• Can not activate reinstalled windows 8

  A year ago I bought a dell inspiron 15r with windows 8 only installed language. Dell didn't send me a windows install disc and I don't know my product key. I don't like windows 8 at the time and did a clean install of windows 7 and used for a year. Recently, I decided to reinstall windows 8.je found an iso file of windows 8 and installed it on my USB. Assumed to activate my windows 8 automatically but it didn't. During installation, it did not my product key, I thought it was activated, but it is not. It's find my product key 8 windows with my service tag.

  The iso file I found is 8.1 windows only language, I think that there is no problem here.

  Microsoft made the Windows 8.1 installation media reject 8.0 Windows product keys during installation, but not during activation. The solution is to install with a generic product key and then get your product using RW-everything key. You can then activate using the key to change. See here for more details:
