Please note this step #9If the activation service informs you that she has failed and cannot help with activation, then STAY ON THE LINE and your call will be transferred to an operator of activation which will help you to activate your copy of Vista. The operator will give you all the numbers to ID of Confirmation if they accept that your copy of Vista is legitimate.
NOTE: The operator just explain your situation and what you did to require activation. (EX: hardware upgrade, installed Vista on a new computer after uninstalling it from the old one, etc...) -

I PUT IN THE PRODUCT KEY NOW IT SAYS THAT MY BIOS HAS NEED OF LICENSE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME
Trevor,
Since it is a subject as serious please would mention what exactly the error message to avoid any misunderstanding about the advice you are given.
A Bios license message seems to make no sense as long as the bios is a piece of hardware that is part of the motherboard of your computer.

type of product key and he says that's not the right number
I typed in the product key, but he says that's not the right number. I checked it several times. It's a HP Windows Vista Home Premium.
As HP shipped computers with Windows preinstalled, it is likely that you are using the incorrect product key. The Windows product key is usually in a label in the computer chassis, while the office is usually available to a box or envelope.

I received 5 Lightroom as a gift a few months ago and cannot install it because my new computer doesn't have a CD player. Instead, I downloaded the demo and hoped I could enter a product key, but was never invited. Now, the trial has ended and I still have not been invited, just denied access. What should I do to go on the record as owning this software?
Hi junenfante,
Please see the download links where you can download the installer and activate the product using the serial key.
WIN: Adobe - Lightroom: for Windows
MAC: Adobe - Lightroom: for Macintosh

Trying to enter the product key
I entered the product key correctly but when I hit the enter button its not available so I can't do anything. What can I do? It's not even say whether its wrong or not the option to continue or enter is not available when I get in there.
Hello Nicole Hollins.
The product key on the bottom of the computer is for the operating system of the computer not for an Office product.
Some computers come preinstalled with a trial version of Office that is usually 60 to 90 days. However, if you wish to continue using
an Office product, you need to buy Office 2007 from a store online or in a retail store. to get the product key code. It will be on the box or the CD cover.To buy online, you can click here for a link to the Microsoft Store: http://store.microsoft.com/microsoft/Office-Compare-Office-2010-Suites/category/213
They will e-mail your product key.I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Marilyn

I get a message to activate Windows, but when I enter the product key from the back of the pc, told me that it is not valid. I've used Windows every day. that's some update? (I'm running Vista). I have done a few months ago after repairing the pc, but the number has worked well. I have the installation disc of Windows that came with the computer, but did not know if the "repair my computer" would do the trick. Anyone have this problem?
Hello
· Where there any material changes done on the computer when it was repaired?
· What is the brand and model of the computer?
First of all, I suggest you to contact your computer manufacturer and check the valid activation key. Follow these methods and check if that helps.
Method 1:
I suggest you to refer to this article and check if it helps:
Resolve activation problems
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-activation-problems
Method 2:
If Windows detects that the hardware on your computer has changed significantly and the previous method does not resolve your problem, you may need to contact Microsoft for help. To see the list of phone numbers Microsoft Activation Centers worldwide, visit the Microsoft Web site at the following address:
