    My question is how can I get my product key when it is nowhere on my computer and my computer has been completely cleaned.

    Hello

    That's what you're looking for if XP came preinstalled:

    The COA sticker is either or in the battery compartment on the underside of the laptop.

    With a desktop computer, it's on the side, the back or the top of the computer case.

    If it is lost and you have wiped the hard drive, your only option is to contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    See you soon.

  • Activation of the product with the product key valid for windows XP

    To the right:
    I bought an upgrade to windows xp for many years with a valid product key, but recently I had rebuilt my computer and reinstalled windows xp.  Under the limit of 30 for actiavtion, I entered my product key and it was invalid, I called microsoft and gave them 9 blocks of 5 digits, and they were able to activate my product.  When I spoke to a representative, they confirmed that my product key is valid, but they were unable to help me activate my windows OS, except for fees of $ 59.  The second option was to write an email through this site.  Please, if possible give me instructions on how can I activate my product key.  Thank you, Kevin Martin

    I ring back again and get an operator who actually knows what they are doing - XP is still supported for activation problems, regardless of the level of MS, if I understand correctly.
    Your problem seems to be that you have installed a version update of XP without having anything to upgrade? (I don't think that was possible).
    Try to install the missing Service Packs - any attempt activation again.

    How to get a new product key to activate sp1

    I downloaded the sp1 update and after installation, I discovered that I needed a new kay product for activation. HOW CAN I GET THE KEY PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE?

    Your installation reports that it is authentic - but you have a cached validation failed.

    Try a manual validation to www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate

    If she passes (and should be) you will be offered IE9 and MSE - you don't have to take them!

    [edit]

    I have just re-ckecked the key - and it's for an ASUS computer.

    You must purchase a legal Win Ultimate, or go back to the original OS that came with the computer using the manufacturer's recovery disks.

  • How can I find the product key if the laptop was a gift?

    How can you find the product key if the laptop was a gift and you do not have a cd

    Hello

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

    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 get another product key I just bought this laptop of a friend n, she bought from someone else

    You can only get a new product key when buying a new copy of Windows.

    Check the bottom of the laptop for a sticker with a 25-digit product key.  If she says it's for the same edition of Windows that is currently on the computer then you can use it.  Otherwise, you can order recovery disks from the manufacturer of the laptop or of a third party as Recovery - Disks.com and restore the computer to its factory condition.  Recovery disks don't require entry of a product key during installation.
