  • I had to reinstall Windows XP Pro after a hard disk crash. Sent product key Microsoft form with the Windows disk is invalid.

    Some time ago I bought a computer with Windows XP pre-installed.  I have not received a CD with it.  At one point, during an update Windows online, I learned that the copy of Windows was not authentic, and the place I bought it from was out of business.  I then bought Windows XP Pro Microsoft online and went through the update of product with the Windows product key update tool and ran OK from there.
    Well, my HDD recently crashed, and I started to install the Windows XP Pro purchased CD on a new hard drive.  The installation was asked to enter the 25-digit product key, I found that the unique product key sent with the CD has been a key 20 digits in this format; Product key: SKU:B7P - 00005 KEY01:xxxxx - xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-CD2.   (The x are just for the format).

    What do need me do to be able to install my real purchased copy of Windows XP Pro?

    The numbers you enter are not the product key. Contact Ms. online where you bought the CD or try some of the links below:

  • I have a valid product key for Vista Home Pemium. How can I get this drive?

    I have an Acer Aspire 5610 and my hard drive died.  I need to reinstall windows, but have no disk.  I have a valid product key for Vista Home Pemium.  How can I get this drive?  Acer sells not more the disc for this model.

    Hello

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    As Acer does not have them, you have to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • Had to reload Windows vista 64 bit and now my office think that it's a laptop? How can I fix it?

    I had to reload windows after blue screen of death would not go away and now my desktop PC thinks it of a laptop and tablet pc installed programs. I use this as a media pc and run only the moviw and music on this subject. Need to get the old system, because it now seems slower for some reason any.

    Why and how your computer gives you the impression it's a laptop?

    Take a look at the toolbars when you right click on an empty part of the taskbar.  Uncheck the box about the Tablet PC.

    Tablet PC also gets a mention in programs and features / turn Windows features on or off.

  • Hi, I had a subscription to creative cloud for more than a year.

    Hi, I had a subscription to creative cloud for more than a year.

    I use Photoshop and Lightroom on a daily basis, but have only recently started using Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder. I do not see me using any other software for the future. Is it possible to lower my monthly payment of $57.49? If this isn't the case, I think I'm going to close my current subscription of cloud and sign up for the composition of the photograph. I have a version of first 11 elements that I could upgrade to the latest version.

    Original title: media library

    I have a HP M7330 Media Center with a dead MB machine. Changed the MB & learned, too late, "Mo tattoo" as fact by HP & cannot use the recovery partition to reinstall. I'm looking for a way to get a copy of Windows Media Center 2005 french as I have a valid license key for a version of XP MC, this license does not work with my XP Pro drive & my better half - would like to get this machine in order for the moment.

    Thanks for any help before the machine answers my sledgehammer.

    Luke

    Hello

    Windows XP Media Center is available for OEM only and if you don't have a motherboard the OEM valid, it will not activate.

    The only option would be to get a newer version of Windows if your system supports or get an OEM motherboard (HP) that you can use the recovery on.

    You can see this article if you want to upgrade to Windows 7.

    I have an Acer Aspire 3100 computer laptop comes with Windows Vista, I am not on the number of bits, sure that the processor in this system supports 64-bit operating systems. I was curious to know if there was a way for me to download Windows Vista from Microsoft online and burn it to a CD or a DVD if I have a valid product key supplied with the system. Is it possible to do this? Thank you.

    You can not download Vista.

    In this case, you may be able to buy Acer recovery disks, if you have not created some when you first the computer.

    If you can borrow a Vista DVD (a copy retail, not supplied by manufacturer), you can reinstall since using your product key.

  • Upgrade Windows Vista Home Premium (not the valid product key problem) to Windows 7 Home premium

    My friend gave a laptop computer whose OS is Windows Vista Home Basic Edition.  I format the computer and install a Windows Vista Home Premium I have for my desktop computer.  Now, I have a problem with a product key.  When I start the laptop, it indicates a product key requirement.  I enter my desktop OS product key, but I still see the declaration valid product key.  My question is this.  If I buy the upgrade to Windows 7, the operating system will work in the laptop even if she has a problem with the product key.  If I buy Windows 7 upgrade, there will be no problem with the product key?  Or do I have to buy a new Windows Vista Home Premium for the laptop?  Or if you know anywhere I can buy a product key for Windows Vista with a reasonable price?  Thank you

    You cannot transfer a license from another computer to another computer, especially if the license came with this machine. You will need to purchase a new license.

  • Valid product key will work not (Windows 8 PRO)

    I'm trying to add windows Media center to my windows laptop 8. When I enter my valid product key, the answer is "this key will not work. Check it out and try again, or try a different key. "Microsoft wants to buy premium to £75 books support when windows 8 cost me £45 new and I have a valid product key." According to them, he spent the 90 day warranty. I don't remember to see a 90 day warranty notice any where or any time during my product Windows 8 opening and the installation. 90 days guaranteed are seen on the property of second hand and services as far as I know. Can anyone help please?

    Media center is the only thing that you can add at this time. There are has no other windows features available for win 8 pro. Use the store to find applications.
