Kind regards

Hello

I would take it back to the workshop of repair and demand that they fix it properly and send it to you already reactivated.

It is a way around it, but it's time and and maybe more money:

As you can not read your product key on the label, we cannot help you get your product key (Key Finder programs will not solve it).

The way around this is to contact your laptop manufacturer and ask them to send you recovery disks to reinstall the operating system properly. They should send records for a small fee.

While you are in contact with the Manufaxcturer of the laptop also ask them if there is a way to reinstall the operating system on a recovery partition on the hard drive of your laptop, allowing you to save money.

Either of these methods of recovery normally does not imply that you have to insert a product key as factory Setup key is automatically used to activate this process.

My advice, in order of preference:

1. repair facility

2. recovery of the process.

See you soon.

  • How will I know that my product key is if I can't read the label

    I need to clean and reload Windows XP Home Edition on my netbook because of spyware and viruses., but I can't read the product key on the label

    because it is worn off the coast or rub off from sweat or use. Is there a way to find this key else where?

    Mike - contact your manufacturer!  No your netbook came with an XP installation CD authentic?

    It can also have a built recovery partition that would set your system to an out of the box condition.

    If you are prompted to register, skip-it is not necessary.  If you are being prompted to activate you need not the product key.  We can not help you with that as the product key provided with the product and is unique and there is no record of who has what key to check - not even at Microsoft.

    I'm sorry, that we cannot be of more assistance.  If bad comes to worse, download and install the FREE OpenOffice Suite (www.openoffice.org), which contains most of the Microsoft Office programs (except Outlook and a few others in the more advanced desktop versions) and at least you won't have to spend more money on the situation.

    Hello

    You mean the product key on the sticker on the case of the Vista operating system pre-installed from Dell, HP, Acer, Toshiba, etc.) ?

    If you do, you can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.

  • How can I erase the drive hard when I can't read the screen of the monitor?

    I need to wipe the hard drive and reinstall windows xp but I can not "cmd" promp because I can't read the monitor

    What do you mean that you can not read the monitor? Is the black screen or it seems weird when you start the operating system? And why do you need command prompt to reinstall an operating system?

    You need not be inside an operating system to reinstall.

    1. Insert the installation disc and turn on your computer
    2 watch it down or up for orders of F access the BIOS (usually F2) or the Startup Manager (usually F12)
    3 power on the system again, then press the button once Startup Manager as a couple at the time wherever you turn on the computer.
    4. Select the CD/DVD drive as the boot device
    5. a screen will come in saying to press a key to boot from CD (so press a key) and the installation will begin.

    If you don't have a Boot Manager, then you must start in the BIOS or Setup and move the CD/DVD drive up to make the first boot device.

    Hi tonyf,.

    Greetings!

    Each device is compatible with a minimum version of camera raw.

    Here is the complete list: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

    Please check if you have this version of the camera installed which include your raw files.

    It would also be that your photoshop will not have to install this version of camera raw as its very old.

    In this case, you can convert your raw files to DNG and can use it.

    To convert the files to DNG, you must download and install the DNG Converter.

    Here is the link:

    Hi mate

    I think that the portable player s (optical disc) DVD region is set in the United States and therefore you can not read the DVD released for the European market.

    To resolve this problem, you must change the option of DVD region 2 region.

    My computer-> drive CD / DVD-> properties-> Hardware tab-> choose the CD drive / DVD-> properties-> DVD region

    Notes; You can change this settings ONLY 4 times. After that the parameters is no longer editable.

  • Can not read the RTC in an application deployed on cRIO9022

    Hello

    I built a datalogging application that stores data in a file name to the name = current date/time on USB. It works fine when connected over the network to the development computer, however, when it is deployed as a start VI, section date and time to the file name are missing, as if he can't read the RTC. The file creation time setting is correct.

    any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Think I found it. When deployed, the front panel indicator ceases to exist.

  • Computer to read DVD - one message says that I can not read the DVD, except that I have installed a new driver.

    I have a new Toshiba C650 laptop, and he says that I can not read the dvd on it except that I have installed a new driver. Is this true?

    Hi Bill,

    To be honest, this sounds ridiculous but if you get a message, I suppose it could be possible even if I find it incredible.  Do you have it in a (local or online) retail store or Toshiba?  By any chance did you upgrade from the DVD player when buying (where they may have accidentally neglected to update the drivers of the drive that was originally installed)?

    As it is new, Toshiba should help you with this.  Here's the contact page: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/navShell.jsp?cf=su_contact&pf=true.  Give them everything they need to prove that buy you it and it should be under warranty and then give them the message Word for Word, that you have found.  They should be able to help you.  They can, for some reason I don't know, you don't need to help or guide you through a new driver installation.  I ask for a clear explanation of why this is necessary on a new computer and, if you are not satisfied with the response, ask them to consider that all the faulty computer and replace it.  Even if they won't, he needs the get them less motivated to solve your problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
