change an OEM to a VLK license

I have a pc with windows xp pro OEM versions. and I want to change my VLK key so that I can save and restore to different hardware (IE HP to a Dell). When I use Acronis backup and restore everything works but I can not activate the license. I tried the key changers and the MSoobe and none worked. I have the pc that are loaded and configured which can take up to a week to recharge and return to where they were. and I wish I could recover on different hardware. This process works if I leave HP to HP or Dell from Dell.

Note that you will need to maybe perform a repair installation if windows are restored to another brand of PC AND may not work at all if the BIOS locked or No Mo already mentioned.

  • I can't activate a VM XP, I have a VLK license but the machine has been built with an oem license.

    I can not activate a virtual XP machine.  the virtual machine is a clone of a pc that has since been erased.  the original machine was probably activated with an OEM key.  I tried activating by phone and putting our license key of Volume without success.

    I would be grateful for any suggestion.

    Thank you very much

    Heh!

    The key to the report is an OEM_SLP key, rather than a Volume key-

    The key of COA_SLP supplied with the original computer cannot be used to enable this virtual machine either, because he reuires to use on the original material.

    You can not use a license upgrade for the virtual machine, because there is no base license - so you are limited by the terms of the Windows license using a retail for Pro license, and then upgrade which (if necessary).

    The key here is most likely another valid - but installation is almost certainly classified as non-authentique, due to the presence of the multitude of the OEM.s in the BIOS - unless you use XP Mode in a Win7 machine

    Hello

    You don't say where you got the OEM Windows 7 license of.

    If you got it from another computer, the answer is no.

    If you bought from Microsoft, you can.

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

  • Migration of the HP OEM system, dead motherboard - License Lock

    I replace the desktop computers that are both the same model of a HP Desktop Tower. The motherboard on one of the computers has been cut. Can I swap hard drives and always operate the system very well, but when I move the hard drive to a new system Windows 7 refuses to launch (license lock). The product code for the system was for Windows 7 Home Premium and we bought and used codes upgrade of Windows 7 Edition Family Premium to Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, but the license lock still prevails.

    Can I (and what is the best route) to contact Microsoft to remove the lock of license?

    (It is not economically feasible to track down a motherboard for a 5 year old computer and continue to run on older hardware. The license must not be used on old hardware, dead.

    If not, is it possible to buy a license code Windows 7 retail and replace the code to get the job of the computer?

    Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

    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. »)

  • Windows 7 OEM install using another license

    Hello, I have two questions that are related to each other. I hope you can help me with both of them:

    Question 1:

    I have a question about the installation of windows 7. It's a little complex, by I hope you get me right.

    -J' have a full DVD of windows 7 Home premium OEM. It has never been used before. I have 3 laptops in hope, that each of them is currently running windows 7 Home premium full.

    -I know what to install and to use the OEM license on a laptop will be attached or restrict the OEM license on this first portable. While the next time I will be able to reinstall windows and use the OEM license on this first cell only, not on the other.

    -My question is: can I use the OEM windows 7 Home premium installation DVD to reinstall windows on the other two laptops with the condition to use the licence they were sold with (windows 7 Home premium too), after I installed the OEM version on the first laptop.

    -So the question is on the license and OEM installation DVD. Can I use an OEM windows 7 installation DVD to reinstall windows 7 Home Edition premium on all my laptops using codes license they had (windows 7 Home premium).

    Question 2:

    This is where the thing gets complicated again:

    I have a laptop that had a 7 Home premium English windows version installed on it when I bought it, while the other two have a windows 7 home premium french version installed on them.

    Can I use the OEM windows 7 Home premium installation DVD to reinstall windows on these two laptops and use their license codes, to activate windows because they initially had a version in French of windows 7 Home premium installed on them.

    Thank you in advance.

    Question 2:

    This is where the thing gets complicated again:

    I have a laptop that had a 7 Home premium English windows version installed on it when I bought it, while the other two have a windows 7 home premium french version installed on them.

    Can I use the OEM windows 7 Home premium installation DVD to reinstall windows on these two laptops and use their license codes, to activate windows because they initially had a version in French of windows 7 Home premium installed on them.

    You want to keep in French or English?

    No, it is not required to keep them in French, we use an English version as well. So, it is possible?

    Otherwise, thank you for such a comprehensive response.

    Yes, it is possible.

  • VMware Tools upgrade changes machineID, breaks the issuance of licenses for some applications

    We have this application called localization, manufactured by Hyland Software. Whenever I've upgrade VMware Tools on our ESXi hosts on all virtual machines, it breaks the granting of licenses for the application and localization will not work until the licensing is completely redone. No idea why this is happening?

    Below is the reading of the application regarding the issuance of licenses, and attached is a screenshot of the error in the application. I'm certainly not asking someone to solve the problem of the application, but what on earth could possibly VMTools change that would have caused this? Thanks in advance!

    If this is what is causing the problem?

    I'm sure of it - about 99.9% Yes.

    And if so, what changes would affect a particular software feature licenses?

    "All the virtual machines have a hardware version, which shows the characteristics of virtual hardware that supports the virtual machine, such as BIOS or EFI, number of virtual slots, maximum number of processors, the maximum memory configuration and other features material." - from http://www.vmware.com/products/datacenter-virtualization/vsphere/compute.html

    They probably linked the license to an individual (or several) attribute of the "hardware" of the virtual machine. Think of it regarding a physical system - changed nothing in the operating system (at least not GUID, MSN, etc.), it was something that the operating system has access to related material. You could probably bug them enough and get them to reveal madness method they use for this, but I don't know if it would be really useful. You can leave virtual to older material , to some extent, which means that you can reduce the number of times you have to repeat this process.

  • Reinstall the need for change of key - windows 7 ultimate license

    A computer already running windows 7 ultimate, but he says that's not authentic. I prefer the OS to have 100% integrity of Microsoft files, not the factory of rootkit of guangdong with a side of worms and trojans. I prefer my OS to be safe and secure.

    If I buy a license from Microsoft for Windows 7 Ultimate key, do I reinstall windows to make "active and authentic?

    or
    It is possible to move to a screen, enter the key that I buy and update the operating system with fancy Microsoft anti-spyware, anti-malware + tools anti-virus to make sure that the computer has not all threats runs hidden in the background?

    Best to do a clean install (full version) you can never be 100% certain that you have removed all malware.

    Don't purchase just a license key but rather get media as well (never know when you'll need it). I'll give two options, so you can decide on a key and download file (.) ISO) or the product in a box with the media and the key.

  • How can I change my Windows CS5 for Mac license?

    I contacted the service Adobe customer on July 25 to discuss my transition from Windows to Mac.  I asked on downloads for my CS5 and my Lightroom 2.  I shared that I was to move from operating systems and that he wanted to know what I would do in advance to make sure I'd be ready to go when I got my new computer.  I sent a link in the chat for my two products.  Today, I went to download and they do not work - they are windows-based.  After 22 minutes of slow response time, I was told that this was not possible, I need to have the latest version.  Which seems odd given that Mac was certainly around when I bought these programs.

    My questions are:

    Why I wasn't told all this back on July 25, when I had my other computer and initially contacted Adobe?

    Why would I need to buy yet another program and I certainly don't want to cloud base when I already purchased my programs?

    Thank you.

    This is the user to user forums.  No one here can answer that Adobe could have told you.  Most anyone here can tell you that if you ask to switch platforms from Windows to Mac for any products in CS5 that you are out of luck with regard to obtaining Adobe to support that desire.  The license that you have purchased is valid for a Windows installation.  You can download and install a Mac version of the software, but your license/serial number will not work with it.  Only, they provide swaps of platform for the most recent version products, including four years or ago was CS6 (I suspect they'll release this option in the future at some point as well).  If you want to acquire a license for a version of CS5 Mac, then you will have to go around and find someone who sells.  Another option would be to try to use a Windows on Mac emulator, you can install a version of Windows.

    As far as Lightroom will, for this license must be valid for each platform, but the software itself could have problems with a new operating system.

  • I recently changed from Windows to Mac, how can I change that on my driver's license

    @

    Hello BarbsNicholas,

    in my library, I found this:

    with CC, you can use the software on a PC and Mac OS. The Adobe ID is used for the activation process. Previously, you could activate only on two instances of the same operating system. This restriction has been removed. Also, if you connect to a third computer on which you installed CC, you are automatically connected on one of the earlier computers where you are logged in.

    Adobe has this given these tips:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/creative-cloud/FAQ.html > can I use the software I download creative cloud on more than one machine? > Yes. Creative desktop cloud applications can be downloaded and installed on multiple computers, regardless of the operating system. However, the activation is limited to two machines per person associated with membership. See the terms of use for more information. Learn how to turn off a CC license on a machine.
