    Most laptops and many OEM desktop computers (HP, Sony, etc.) come with a picture of factory restore on a special partition on the hard drive. The factory restore process is normally called by pressing a key of function (such as F11) to start the computer. There will be a message as to what function key press the screen when you start your computer. You can also consult the manual of your computer or the computer mftr.'s site, or contact technical support to learn how to restore your computer if you plant from each computer mftr. He does it differently - sometimes even between models.

    These machines also generally have a utility to create physical recovery disks in case the hard drive needs to be replaced or the factory restore image is somewhat damaged. If you have not created the recovery image recovery physical and/or damaged disks, contact technical support of computer mftr. to order a set of recovery disks. It is normally very expensive, around $25-50.

  • How to find the product key for a game online on Steam?

    I'm playing a game that connects to live on steam. He asked my windows product key which I didn't, but I discovered how to get without going through it. I got about 5 + programs for giving me my product key number anyway. But I always get an error message. I checked it more than 10 times. Still does not work. Is it possible for a person to miscrosoft to give me or I can call and they can give me?

    Hello Elias1724,

    Steam ask the product key for the game and not your product key for the Windows operating system.

    Where did you buy the game to install it?
    You bought the game on Steam? If so, then they would need the product key.
    Have you received an email with a link to download the game?

    It is not your Windows product key.

    Sincerely,

    If you are unable to retrieve the product key provided with the system then Windows communicate with the system

    Look at the lower/rear part computer and tape or disks that came with the unit.

    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.

  • How can I find the product key for a specific OEM drive?

    Product key for reinstallation question

    I want to reinstall Windows XP on my Dell computer.  I have the oem disc, but it is mixed with the other two provided with two other computers Dell oem disks that were purchased at the same time.  The sticker on my computer displays a product key.  When I do a search for product key on the computer using a program key finder, sometimes with a different product key.  Which should I use and is at - there a way to find the product key on the disc?  Thanks for any help.

    PS. the unattend.txt to disk file is NOT the correct product key.

    If the drive of a Dell computer with the same edition of the OS, then you can use the disc - I think that each of them will have the same key as the one that is currently installed (and that on your sticker)

    Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:

    (A) OEM SLP: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with Bios OEM flag only on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows key leans on the motherboard and he sees the flag proper Bios OEM (for the manufacturer and the version of Windows) and activates.

    (B) SLP COA: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side, bottom or (for some laptops) in the compartment of the battery from your computer. It's a valid product key, but it should be used only in certain situations (for example, when the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone.
