HoD to reinstall Windows 7 but lost my key series windows 7

Hi, I had windows 7 active on my desktop and everything was fine but I recently installed an SSD in my computer, windows installed on that and removed on the other disk. So now I need to activate it again, but I can't find my serial key. Help, please.

Windows 7 came preloaded on your desktop?

If so, look for the COA sticker for:

    Hello

    Look on the bottom computer and on the tape or disc that came with the unit.

    These can be controlled mode also - safe tap F8 repeatedly that you start.

    If the system is still running, you can use these to access your product key. These are not cracks, they
    only retrieve your existing key.

    One of them allows to recover your machine if possible.

  • Need to reinstall windows, but does not have any CD - Satellite Pro L20

    Hi, I wanted to reinstall Windows XP home on my Satellite Pro L20, but do not have the software that my laptop came with (read the discs lost). I have a valid XP tone (like its stuck on the bottom of my laptop), but no disc so I tired using a copy of a cd of Windows XP home, which did not work, but let me go as far as the formatting of the hard drive.

    So now I use Ubuntu, but want to reinstall Windows. Have valid product key, but no software to reinstall.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Christopher

    Valid key will not help you. This key belongs to the image recovery and copy included WXP he.
    If you have two options. Either you order original Toshiba recovery image or use Microsoft installations CD key which belongs to this copy. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

    Good luck!

  • After you have reinstalled windows xp, I lost my audio devices of the system

    I plugged in a new usb mouse and hub 4way in my computor screen went blue, wgen she is back on I had no control of the mouse. I plugged the old mouse, the screen was frozen. Ishut down and rebooted but nothing works. I reinstalled windows xp butnow I have not any showwing audio device connected. the motherboard is foxcom

    You has not LOST the device if you have installed new XP Windows.  You simply do not have the device for device drivers, Windows XP can actually communicate with the device.

    You will need to download and install all THE drivers for hardware devices.  Motherboard chipset, audio, video, networks, printers, scanners, cameras and so forth.

    "Foxcom" tells us nothing and is only part of the story.  In order to get the drivers, you will need to know each device you have (or at least the make and model of the motherboard or computer as a whole.)

    How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Reinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium after the passage of hard drives. Lost activation key between yesterday and today.

    Everything is in the title, well enough. I bought a student upgrade copy of Windows 7 in late 2009 / early 2010 and installed it via Bootcamp on a MacBook Pro. I recently updated my hard drive, and to my dismay, did not have my backup of Windows and so I reinstalled the operating system. My only problem is that I lost the key. Can't find anywhere I tried to download a product keys Locator, but when I entered the key, it gave me it tells me that there is a default keyboard and can therefore be used for activation.

    I'm kind of at a loss for what to do here. The ID of the product was rejected when I looked, but I know for a fact that this copy of Windows is legitimate, since I checked before BONE. Any help would be appreciated...

  • I reinstalled Windows, doesn't have a backup Firefox bookmarks (I tought Firefox Sync that will do for me) and now it seems I've lost them. What can I do?

    After reinstalling Windows and reinstall Firefox, I had firefox sync with (I think) a new product key, because the former was lost. After all the steps when finished and by pressing the sync now button, no synchronization has been made. None of the old don't bookmarks links or directories we are restored. Help, please! Thank you.

    You get your data from the server without the adequate SyncKey key, which is used to encrypt your data to go on the server and decrypted when it is uploaded to Firefox. When you get a new SyncKey to an account, the server is removed from all your data, so it does not fall into the wrong hands.

  • Damaged HARD disk, need to reinstall windows... but I had installed the Vista upgrade 7!

    Hello

    A few months ago, my computer (HP Pavilion a6700f) decided that he no longer wanted to live. The hard drive is corrupted and I could never get anything from him. I tried many ways, sent him, put it in another computer... it is as if there is never nothing about it initially. (Sad because I stupidly did not save my content). I have come to terms with her being gone, and I'm now looking to reinstall and start over.

    I tried to run the install disc and it won't go to the point where she wants to give me drivers... my question is, because I had updated the computer to its original operating system Vista to Windows 7 when they offered the free update, I have to reinstall windows Vista, and then upgrade again? Or it will allow me to install drivers windows 7? Also, is there somewhere where I can download the installation for my specific computer disks? I used the upgrade disk to reinstall, but he wants than signed drivers.

    I know that sounds a little crazy, but I want to fix it than to buy a new HARD drive. I have my windows for Vista key... Although I don't know if there was another key for the upgrade to Windows 7, as on the package or something... like I did that more.

    I hope this makes sense to someone! Thanks in advance!

    As you have no recovery disk, you will have to order them from service to HP customers in your country if they are still available for a nominal charge:

    If you decide to replace the hard drive, to have one that is not less than 500 GB SATA 7200 RPM like the one you have now.

  • Reinstalled Windows 7 3 times, but it keeps freezing.

    Come back my t400 2767 CTO of a repair, they changed the MB, lcd display and the fan.

    The problem is that my computer guard either gel or the screen goes all black.

    I tried to reinstall Windows 7 3 times today, first time to install all the drivers through the systemupdate I was able. That did not help so I decided to reinstall windows.

    Second test, I started installing all the windows updates via windows update and then drivers through systemupdate, but it did not help.

    Third time I updated windows, then installed the latest version of directX, followed by the gfx driver.

    What should I do? Is this a software or hardware error?

    It turned out to be a hardware failure, a faulty wire of a certain type.
