How to check if a windows 7 valid license

Return of a local company who renovate and sell old computers from companies that upgrade their IT, I bought a Dell PC second-hand about a year. It came with Windows 7 installed, which I assume was an OEM copy - certainly, everything seemed fine until I installed SP1. This grew up messages that my copy was invalid, and I now have a black screen instead of the wallpaper.

Is it possible to check if this license has been blacklisted by mistake, or if this company should not have been shipping the PC with Windows 7?

There are no disks, packaging or manuals with the PC, but I assumed that with versions OEM would not be there. However, the site of "How to say" only covers check the packaging of what I see.

Assuming this isn't a valid copy, what are my options? The PC has Windows XP sticker - no doubt it is originally shipped with XP installed. I would be able to use this license to upgrade or would it only valid for the original purchaser?

I'd just be able to buy a license and what is the usual cost? Softwareplanet (http://www.software-planet.co.uk/) list a Windows 7 Ultimate key for £30 - it seems authentic or it's too expensive?

Last question, can I "downgrade" the version of Windows installed to the easiest to save on the cost of the key if I do not need to buy one? I don't need ultimate, it's just what has been installed. I'd be happy with just at home, but I have to do a complete reinstall?

Windows license Type: OEM SLP


Your installation uses an OEM SLP key to be installed at the factory at the time of manufacture. Yours was not.  your bios date 11/05/2007 is earlier than the version of windows 7 in 2 years. Your installation is not valid (pirates)
You need to buy and install a legitimate windows.
more information:
(A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

  • How to check if the object is valid or not?

    I have a scenario in my stored procedure, where the functions seeks a User_Object and if found (= 1), then it executes.
    ex:
    IF TEXISTS ('LAB_IN') = 1 THEN
    FOR x IN (SELECT COLUMN_NAME, SRC_COL, SRC_TBL, COLUMN_PREFX, COLUMN_STRING_OPP, DEST_TABLE L_UTIL_SRC WHERE SRC_TBL = 'L')
    LOOP
    VCAT: = CASE WHEN ISCAT > 0 THEN ELSE REPLACE(x.DEST_TABLE, 'UTIL_', '') "END;
    vblJOB: = ";
    vblJOB: = vblJOB | "CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE SP_ | x.DEST_TABLE |' AS ';
    vblJOB: = vblJOB | "PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION; ';
    vblJOB: = vblJOB | ' vblQueryName VARCHAR2 (150); ';
    ..........
    ..........
    ..........

    My question is, what happens if the object (LAB_IN) is not valid. Or if changes have been made to it. How can I do this function NOT run, if the object is not valid... and displays the error message without going any further...

    Any suggestions or comments, would apprecaite it...

    Thank you!

    Don't make the same mistake 3 times. Don't do so many changes at once to your procedure. Decide when you need to make the same change to 3 different places, do it in only 1 place and make sure it works before making the same change elsewhere.

  • How to check a Creative Suite as valid (cash purchase)

    I'll buy CS4 Design Standard for Mac as a matter of money (from Craig's list). All my 'antenna' say it's a good deal, it's someone who has validly there an additional version, "Shrink Wrap", for sale.

    My questions

    (1) it is "Shrink Wrap", is there any icon of witness of authenticity (as a hologram) on the packaging?

    (2) if I had no worries, what is the fastest way to install and get it activated? Do I need to install any programs (which would take time!), or is there a quick way to activation just prove it works?

    Please, do not answer telling me that I am a fool, I can wear my own mind on it (and will be, after I made the purchase!). And I read (most) purchases of the lengthy discussion of eBay in the Photoshop WIndows Forum.

    A

    Probably not! He is better to have a contingency in your purchase for a refund if you find that the serial number is not valid or is stolen goods / pirated.

    Hi Hema,

    Thank you for your kind reply.

    I bought the system in a Dell store allowed, but the thing is I'm getting confused on post purchase experience.  The bag pack which the seller gave me apparently local, when I refused to take it, he assured me that I will get a real bag after a few days. I also think that I cheated from windows.

    I will be much obliged if you can read the issue in the context (the conversation with the windows community)-

    My question - what is the use of "slmgr / / ato" command, my system is watch a range error code 0x80072EF7, when I run this command. can be solved?

    response-

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    According to the publication of the description and the error code that you get when running ' slmgr / / ato "command, it seems that you have any question in your Windows activation.

    Use of slmgr / / ato command:

    For volume systems, with a KMS host key retail editions or a key to activate Multiple (MAK) installed /atoprompts Windows to attempt activation online. Activate Windows license and product key from the Microsoft server. If you receive error 0x80072EF7 code then I suggest you to try the steps outlined in the article below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

    My question-

    I can't run these technical stuffs on my computer. I'm scared I might lose the original settings since I'm not familiar with computer terminology. I didn't activate windows, I run the command "slmgr/ato' because of Microsoft technical team asked me to do the same. The reality is that I just bought a new Dell laptop, which came with no reinstalled windows, but dealer told me it communicates me windows 8.1pro as compliment (when I asked him which win. I should use win10 update or win original 8.1). and the cost of windows is not mentioned in the Bill. I was not aware at the time of the purchase that I won't have a preinstalled windows system, because I asked the price for laptop with the desired configuration and win8.1. I never thought that I buy a DOS system. I paid for almost the same price for laptop with "win 8.1pro" brokers in the area compare to preinstalled laptop computer sing.language win8.1. After 2 days, when I realized the question and asked the technical team at Microsoft to see if windows that is installed on my system is authentic or not, and they told me that windows is authentic, after checking with my key.  From there, my doubt starts Can a windows be true, even if the user has no evidence that he has purchased? Is the only information is the product key which certifies the genuine windows? What is the risk if the dealer gives the same key to another customer as a "compliment".

    Once I shared the issue with Microsoft support, they tried to hear me, but I think that they have not properly my concern. However, they asked me to run that command and message showed that windows is already activated. Since then, I thought that it could be someone else can also use the same key, I tried to check this order 4 days after. Since then, this error shows. Now, I want to solve each and every error on windows, I will also be very grateful if you could provide me the only way to learn how to check the real windows.

    response-

    Yes, I agree with you, your concern on the product key. It is true that your computer vendor could give the same product key to the other person as a gift too. If another person uses the same key to activate the OS, then you might get pop up to activate your Windows or other activation errors.

    You can see the article mentioned below to check if your OS is authentic.

    My question-

    Today, I called again to Microsoft helpline years technical support says my concern again. This time they told me that 'the ID of the product' which I use is enabled on other computers, but still found my authentic windows. I wonder, earlier the chat session which is held with the technical support told me that no one can use the same key that I use. If it someone trying to do it won't affect my computer because I am one who is authentic and the first user. I don't understand why are there different versions of the truths in the company for the same problem?

    I feel very sad that the company like Microsoft is not able to do something for their customers like me who are less sophisticated techno and want to become authentic windows user! Now, I think there must be a link any between the 'error', I've mentioned above and even the activation key on a different system.  I'm afraid how it would affect my system if other systems get activated by the same key. I don't know what are the services that I won't be able to enjoy if my windows become ingenuine later. Kindly guide me how to raise my complain about best way (with respect to the argument) to the dealer or authority be it is.

    response-

    If you have a valid key, then you will be able to turn it on again. If you call our support team then they will check into his tool and validate it, after doing this they will validate your key and help by activating the latter, if it turns out anyway.

    Keep us.
