Don't have a product key for my Windows XP home edition 2002

I was installing my Windows XP home edition 2002, because my friend told me it would help if I re installed he can fix a lot of problems, but he asked for a product key.  I don't have, what should I do?

    I have no product key for my windows vista... I need help... pleaze!

    If Windows Vista is already installed on your system and your system still works (even if only in safe mode) so you can be lucky.  There is a product called Belarc Advisor: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html which can be installed on your system and can retrieve the product key in the system files (only Vista does not provide this feature).

    If you can not enter your system, it has already been formatted or something like that, there is very little that can be done.  There is no place that keeps a record of the product keys related to individuals (or computers) that can be checked and Microsoft will not give without proof of purchase product keys (which IS the key product - the sales receipt or even the disc itself is not enough).  You can't even borrow a disk from someone else because you need your product key to activate the program.  The only choice is to buy another product (you'll probably need a commercial full version as an upgrade will not work on a non-production system or one where you cannot install a product allowing to level).

    You can TRY to get Microsoft to activate your system without a product key if you have the disk (there are codes on the disc, which mean it is valid or not), but I doubt it will work but may be worth a try.  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain that you have lost your product key, but the disc and it's the same PC.  They can give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista (or they have very probably you will say you are out of luck and they can not help you).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck! Lorien - MCSA/MCSE/network + / A +.

  • need to find the product key for Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium

    Last year, I bought a HP Mini 110 series laptop running Windows 7 Starter. I'll tell you the real story, months later, the operating system does not load. Before that, I bought the Windows Anytime Upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium. Days later, the DVD arrived from Microsoft. After the operating system does not load, I called HP support and said the problem of my laptop. Then they sent me a USB which has Windows 7 Starter (which is authentic and no time - watch) and a subscription for 1 year for Norton Antivirus 2011 (now expired).

    Vista Premium check

    A few years ago, I bought a second hand PC... It has been a real installation CD of Vista Home basic. However, the computer is running on a Vista Ultimate. Recently I installed the updates, but I needed to verify the copy of vista installed in the PC. It's sad to say, I don't have the product key for the ultimate, but I still have one for the Basic Home Edition. Please help me what to do. I don't know the difference between the basic and premium. Will I get off just my OS to Vista Home Basic?

    In this case, even if the COA sticker is authentic, that's all that you have a license for

    The sticker looks like one of those who here?

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/howtotell/hardware.aspx

    If Yes, then you can reformat and reinstall (after backup your data on external media) using the disc and key - and will end by (hopefully) with a legal basis Home installation.

    You can verify the key before you try - in which case I suggest ringing your local activation center from the list below and ask them about it. They should be able to tell you the story of the activation of the key, and whether or not it is currently ranked as authentic.

  • I try to upgrade my old vista laptop to win7, but don't remember the product key for my computer compaq laptop. How can I get this key?

    * Original title: get the product key

    I try to upgrade my old vista laptop to win7, but don't remember the product key for my computer compaq laptop. How can I get this key?

    Hello

    Your question is not very clear to understand.

    If Vista is preinstalled on your laptop, this product key is NOT for Windows 7.

    There is a free upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 years, but that offer expired for a long time.

    How does the Windows 7 upgrade Option?

    The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your Windows 7 update will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Option of upgrade Windows 7 program runs from June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option.

    Microsoft sells more than Windows 7, but it does NOT come for free.

    Try Amazon.com, etc.

    ___________________________________________________________

    And if you ask to transfer the license of Windows 7 from a mobile to another laptop:

    You tell us what type of license you have.

    If the laptop came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

    The above applies also to OEM system builders licenses.

    License of operating system in detail, that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  • new hardware computer, but even hard-i discs have to re activate windows! I don't have my product key!

    When corsair came out with their case of 350 d Obsidian decided to move my PC parts to fit the Micro ATX case. I kept the same RAM, CPU, PSU, GPU and my hard drives that contain Windows 7 PRO. Everything worked up to what a few minutes in the PC running. in my toolbar next to the Center, volume and network icons, there was a picture of key (such as the physical keys) by saying that I need to activate windows. I use this drive for almost more than a year and all of a sudden with new parts that I need to activate windows? the only thing I changed was the motherboard!

    I have Microsoft office installed and when I open Office Word the program asked for activation. but all this time, I had to click on a button and activate it with the internet.
    Why the operating system does not require a product key to 'turn on' when I was using the same operating system for centuries?
    I don't have my product key and I want to know if I can "activate" windows without one.
    I see this when I try to activate.
    Then it says this

    "the only thing I changed was the motherboard!

    It is the motherboard which gives a computer it's identity. Essentially, the card mother IS the computer.

    The original installation was probably pre-installed and turn to the original BIOS to check that he was still the same. Now when he checks, he finds a different BIOS.

    Under the terms of the OEM, the operating system cannot be transferred to another computer, which is what you did...

    If your COA sticker is still legible, you can download a Windows 7 ISO and install it using the main code of the COA sticker.

    See the response of Mike Hall, but also, note the following:

    What virus do you have? How do you know if you're a? Reinstalling Windows due to a virus is almost never required and is usually exaggerated way. It is normally much easier and much less likely to cause you problems if you delete the virus with a good antivirus program.
