  Hello

  No - what are the two Acers come with a recovery disk?

  If this is not the case, one of them would have a recovery partion, which specifically is to reinstall the operating system on it.

  With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process.

  All data are lost when you do the above.

  And for the lost disc, contact Acer and ask them to send you recovery disks.

  They do that for a small fee:

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

• Product key lost after upgrade to windows 7

  Hey,.

  Just thought it should be mentioned that the lost product key of installed software (legitimately) on upgrades of machines pre windows can be retrieved from the file created 'windows.old' on the C: drive, using key finder software. It saved me forking out good money for buying again the likes of office etc because I had lost the key of product from the purchase.

  Notice of the Microsoft support Web site and my software (software4students.co.uk) retailer was to give up and re-buy.

  I couldn't find mention of it on another forum, where my comment.

  See you soon,.

  Product key - where to find the Windows product key

  If you bought a computer with Windows preinstalled would a certificate of authenticity (COA) sticker somewhere on your computer. It will say what version of Windows you have and will also have an alphanumeric code at 25 on it - this is your product key. If it is not on your computer look in your documents or on any case of CD/DVD that was included with the computer.

  If you purchased Windows 7, it should be included in the retail box.

  If you purchased Windows 7 online and downloaded that the key should be sent to you by e-mail.

• UEFI and Windows 10 licenses

  I have read that with UEFI system, Windows 10 licenses are hardcoded in the UEFI firmware. This means that if I format my drive, wipe my recovery partitions and install 10 Windows from a USB key (assuming that it is not a recovery of my own drive machine, but an image downloaded from Windows written on it) it will be automatically validated and I'll have a legal installation?

  Hello

  If this is the same operating system supplied with the computer, it should work. It will go through a normal installation of Windows without having to request the license key.

• Is a Windows 7 license key valid for both 32-bit and 64-bit?

  I received today an NFR of Windows 7 Ultimate copy at the launch of Microsoft.  He has a valid (I hope!) but license key the DVD is 32-bit.  The same license key is valid for the 64-bit installations as well?  In other words, if I get a copy of the DVD 64 bit, can I use the license key, I just got?

  It is a new installation on a system that currently has Vista 32 bit.

  Thank you
  ... /Ed

  Now that I know that Win 7 64 bit works very well with my hardware.  Can I legally get my Windows Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 32 bit?  And keep two versions of Windows 7 on the same machine.

  If you have a license of Windows 7, you can have a Windows 7 installation.

  To install Windows 7 32 bit, you will need to first format/remove 64-bit install.

  You will need to purchase a license/second key to install Windows 7 twice at the same time. There is no discount on a second license if you already have a license.

• Qty 9 Vista > Windows 7 licenses

  How can I get Qty 9 Windows 7 licenses for Vista OEM computers & detail 9?

  I have 9 computers running genuine Vista Home Premium (32-bit 5, 4 64 bit) licensed. I need to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. (A clean install is ok if a place in the upgrade is not an option). I did Digital River 32 - bit and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium discs. So I think that I now only need Windows 7 Home Premium licenses?

  Most of the computers are OEM (HP, Dell) but 3 computers had installed retail Windows (non OEM) and 1 was an upgrade on the spot of XP to Vista. Will be the licenses that I find work any installation of Vista was already installed? I am not concerned by the assumption, only the licenses that I get to be recognized and authenticated during the installation.

  What would be the best (cheapest) way for me to get the licenses I need? I prefer not to buy physical media of retail packages that sell usually for $90 - $99 which is almost $1,000 and they are all old computers. I found a place online selling 'Download only' licenses for $55, which seems to be a reasonable investment to keep these computers going a few more years. I've never bought only before licenses. Is a reasonable price of $55, or is there a way easier, cheaper or better? How much would be volume licensing become an option?

  Finally, if I do a fresh install can I take the 32-bit Vista systems and make all 7 computer 64-bit Windows systems by installing simply with the 64-bit key? This way I could end up with 9 computers all running Windows 7 64 bit that would make things a little easier.

  Last question: a license of Windows 7 can be used to install Windows 7 on a computer that was originally XP? Currently, the computer in question has no OS installed but has a valid XP COA sticker and installation disk original XP (Dell OEM XP SP2 "Reinstall operating system drive").

  Thank you for answering my questions of license.

  You know what this site is selling? MSDN/TechNet licenses:

  On MSDN or TechNet product key

  They are genuine Microsoft product keys, they are in fact retail licenses, but it is expected for a product specific Microsoft Software Developer Network (MSDN) and TechNet channel for professionals who pay a subscription. The main objective is for evaluation purposes. The big thing to their subject, unlike Microsoft, MSDN or TechNet keys evaluation software expires. Because the agreement by virtue of which the subscription is provided is a single license, none of the software should be distributed outside of it. Although its $50,000 worth of licenses, it is for one person only for use and no one else. Unfortunately, no matter the conditions of license, people still abuse of the program, two key product gift or sell on auction sites. Microsoft it issues licences in good faith that customer will not do it, but I guess human nature win on.

  In your case, what can happen, you buy a MSDN license key, which carries up to 10 activations unlike packed full of retail licenses which carry 1 activation. The person who sells you probably eventually sold to 10 other people. Somewhere along the way, one of these people could have installed on a second system activated, because it went past 10 activation threshold, Microsoft has detected that he was abused and blocked the key for later use.

• Should I install Vista Ultimate on all computers laptops before moving on to a 3 Windows 7 license three?

  I'm considering the purchase of three laptops for home use and the case I've seen is for three laptops without operating system. I prefer Windows 7 64 - bit Windows 8 and, of course, need a license of user-3. I don't mind if it's Home Basic, Home Premium, professional or ultimate edition, but an 'Upgrade' will work and if not, what would? I have a spare disk Vista Ultimate, which I have not used more than once when I tried the upgrade to XP and didn't like it, so I went back to XP (present under Windows 7 Ultimate for my main PC) Vista has been in the area since then. I hope I did not install Vista Ultimate on all computers laptops before moving on to 3 Windows 7 license, three but I have a feeling vague feeling that I have to do exactly this. You confirm please?

  Original title: clean install on the new laptop

  Just keep in mind that the OEM versions are equipped with the installation media DVD 32-bit or 64-bit (not both as a retail version) and a product key.

  Also the OEM versions are related to the first card of mother/computer it is installed on and cannot be moved to another PC.

  The cost of an OEM version is much cheaper than commercial versions, especially since Microsoft stopped selling Windows 7.

  Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dsoftware&field-keywords=Windows+7

  As laptops have no OS installed, you need a way to test the system before you try to install an OEM version. I've provided two links to download Windows 7 Home premium (not), but you can install (install without a key) and it allows to test each laptop computer before installing an OEM version.

  3 download the touch driver.
  4 unzip and install
  5 reset
  6. you should now have the touchscreen feature.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows OEM license for physical relationship.

  I ask this question in the forum Hardware because what I read; a Windows OEM license is married to a motherboard or hard drive.

  Is this true? The results of the research gave me conflicting answers.

  What happens if the motherboard or the C: drive dies? the associated Windows license would be lost with her?

  A computer components store told me that for the OEM depends more on what are the elements of qualification you purchase, or when you buy them. Which is in conflict with what I read.

  Note - my choice of OS Windows is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, SP1, OEM.

  OEM qualifies for all DIY systems.

• Satellite U940 - 12 c: Windows 8 license code?

  Hello.

  I own a Toshiba Satellite U940 - 12 c. Due to a sequence of horrific circumstances, I'm done with a laptop without Windows 8 and without access to the recovery partition. If there is no idea of how to make to access these data recovery, please tell me.

  But the question is: How can I get my copy of Notepad of Windows 8 license code? Is it possible?

  Thank you and goodbye.

  If you can access the recovery partition on ordinary road, there is no other way to do and saved on your laptop recovery image is useless. It is a pity that you n t have created a recovery media that could be used for a clean install of Win8.

  Maybe you don't believe this, but the license key is also useless and cannot be used for a clean install of Windows. This code is part of the original pre-installed version you got with your laptop.

  Best option for you is to order the original recovery disk and use it for Win8 installed. You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Windows 98 license number

  can anyone answer me on this issue of license? My application needed to run on windows 98, but because Windows 98 is selling to the market, can we just install to use it without buying any license? or can buy us Windows 7 license, then install Windows 7 and Windows 98 together? Or how to fix this?

  Hello Ming21

  You cannot install Windows 98 without a product key and the key for Windows 7 will not work under Windows 98. However, you can use the compatibility mode to try to get apps for Windows 98 work under Windows 7. View the links below to understand how.
