Error code; 0xC004F050

Unactivated product key.  I had this bridge for over 2 years with no problem.  I've updated my AntiVirus MicroTrend, one couple of days, and that's when the problem seem to start.  I don't know if she has nothing to do with it or not.  I've been running since I bought the computer also, just renew it each year when the time comes.  Not my background went complete black and in the States of message below to the right. "This copy of Windows is not genuine" when I rebot the computer it tells me that Vista is not activated and ask for the product key, but when I type in it gives this failure code. 0xC004F050.

Thank you

  • Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit (OEM version) 0xc004f050 error code.

    I have a machine running Vista ultimate 32 bit and decided to add it to windows 7 ultimate 64-bit (OEM) using a new hard drive with the operating system so that I can dual boot drive (or OS).

    I did this so that I could benefit from 8 GB of installed RAM, of which only 64-bit acknowledges.

    The first instalation of Win.7 was bugged with accidents frequent 'blue screen' and programs no longer responds. All updates have been installed, but I was not happy with the performance and decided to do a clean reinstall.

    I formatted the disk and progressed to reinstal win.7.
    The problem started when I had to activate the registration key; -a code 0xC004f050 appears with the comment that the product key is not valid.

    I then tried the phone option, a somewhat laborious procedure of type a string of numbers to validate. This has not worked, although I checked the numbers were correct. The call was redirected to someone somewhere in India, judging from the accent, which gave me a new registration key.
    Needless to say that this new key did not work either, with the same result as the original.

    I phoned a 2nd time to inform them that the key did not work and have now been achieved here for assistance.

    Help, please...

  • Product key invalid for Activation, failure Code: 0xC004F050

    I have a Dell with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 BIT computer. I have been using this computer for over a year without any major problems. I have not recently installed any software, etc. I shut down my computer last night and when I tried to start this morning, I received the following error message:

    "The product key of Windows Vista Home Edition Premium you typed is invalid for activation". I gives me three options to fix this problem:
    1. access your computer with reduced functionality. (This also will allow you to buy a product online key).
    2. enter a different product key.
    3 contact Dell to help solve this problem.

    I tried to re - type the product key that is listed on the bottom of my computer and I received the 0xC004F050 error code. I tried typing the key again (to make sure that I had typed correctly the first time) and I got the same failure code.

    I looked in the old posts in your forum of answers and I could not find any information to help out me.

    To clarify, I don't have access to my Start menu. When I connect, I just asked to select one of the three options listed above.

    In the case of an error in probe (4SNS), to determine what type of sensor is referenced, look for his first letter, which should be 'I' for the current "V" or "T" for temperature, voltage.

    Then check the second letter from the list below to see which component it refers to:

  • 4SNS/1/40000000 error code: VDOR - 18.678 & 18.679

    MBP early 2011: I just ran the AHT twice, the first round gave me an error code of 4SNS/1/40000000: VDOR - 18.678, second inning gave the code 4SNS/1/40000000: VDOR - 18.679. Does anyone know what are these error codes? My best guess is probably the RAM, I have (2) modules of 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3 OR wireless networking equipment installed. I've noticed recently while multitasking, the wifi connection seems to cling and web pages will not load/downloads will pick up. But the way in which applications will be blocked for 60 seconds makes me think of a bad situation of RAM I have had in the past. Any help would be greatly appreciated since the nearest bar genius lies in 2 1/2 hour. Thank you!

    No RAM - 4SNS is a sensor error.

  • Transcend Jet 360 Lite SD care & "the operation cannot be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code - 50)"

    Have used the SD Transcend 360 256 MB card for data storage with success during the last 6 months on my MBP to mid-2014.  Installed their wake from sleep early support software.

    Above error code invite you in this context: I wake up Mac in the morning after sleep.  Transcend icon "wake up" and appear on the desktop (as it should).  I check disk utility and the card is recognized.  HOWEVER, about 1/3 of those mornings, despite appearing and functional map icon (folder open when I click on it), when I try to write/copy a file or folder to it, I get the above error code?  For about a week I missed that everything seemed normal.  My current 'fix' is to eject the card (requires a 'forced ejection"which I'm concerned could damage the card?), but the card ejects without delay.  90% of the time when I remove and reinsert the card, the operating system recognizes, all right.  (There are a dozen times when I had to reboot for it to be recognized.)

    All the others did this experiment with the Transcend (I submitted a request for tech support to them with a persistent response of 'Question Mac'... (LOL).  This error has been noted several times on the Forum discussion, but in the context of external drives and with no apparent solution.  FYI, I use the Transcend (in addition to external systems) b/c it works essentially like a hard drive internal and I use it mainly for Google Drive perfectly... except for the above inconveniences.  Thanks in advance!

    This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post moved to the forum of laptop MacBook Pro or another appropriate forum.
