I need urgent assistance in activation of Windows 8

Here's my situation:

So I bought a laptop comes pre-loaded with Windows 8 from Best Buy (active). More than 3 months, the PC became a little bug and I decided to reset my laptop through the recycling option in the settings > change PC settings > General > remove and re-install Windows.

After the reset, the laptop was functionally operational, but he always tells me to activate Windows. Entering settings > change PC settings > activate Windows, there is only one button saying "Activate Windows". The button does nothing and invites me to contact my local administrator (which is myself).

Familiar with the activation process, I then used Run then use slui.exe 3 both slui.exe 4. After you have manually entered slui.exe my Windows key 3, I get the error 0x8007007B syntax even if the system tells me that my product ID can be used before entering in. Furthermore, when I tried to use slui.exe 4, I am unable to select any country, because the option is grayed out.

From there, I went all and ran CMD with administrator privileges. After using chdsk and sfc/scannow, I typed in this order:
slmgr.vbs /upk (unpacked successfully)

slmgr.vbs-ipk [my product ID] (successfully installed)
slmgr.vbs /ato (now it tells me the error 0x8007007B once again)

Now, I'm quite blurred.  How can I activate Windows when all my options are dysfunctional?

Help is very appreciated.

Loyal customer of Microsoft,

Nahoon

If Windows 8 comes with your computer, where you have the key?

Error 0x8007232b or 0x8007007B occurs when you try to activate Windows

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929826

With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

    I lost my product key and can not activate my system to 32-bit windows 7 Home premium for activation. I have a HP desktop computer and I need a usable product key, someone can help me.

    Issue edited by the moderator to add clarity.* *.

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

    -Old hard drive, the new Machine

    I have a hard drive with Windows XP.  The machine from Dell, in which it was loaded crashes - most likely a motherboard problem.  I installed the HDD on another machine that has had its hard drive failure - virus suspected, etc..  The combination of 'new' hard drive with Windows XP and the Dell with the card mother work seems to work.  I get the error that I have to reactivate Windows XP to connect.  I can't connect Internet (I have not discovered why in this case) and the result by telephone (voice) says that ID is not on file (?) and gives a Web site for activation.  I can't access the Web on the machine, and the Microsoft Web site with the "solution" has the answer in form of download - once again, not good because I can't access the Web with the machine in need of activation.  The phone translates a computer, not a person.  I changed nothing other than to remove the hard drive of a machine which does not to whoever's doing.  What can I do?  Thank you.

    The operating system of Windows XP which is not the operating system on which was installed when you purchased the Dell hard disk from Dell? If so, it's probably an OEM version and as such is "related" to the system BIOS, it came with. It will not activate connected to a system with a different motherboard and a different BIOS. In addition, if an OEM, software license version is no longer valid because it is no longer used with the material with which it was purchased.

    The reason why you can't get an Internet connection is bound. Since the XP system on the hard drive has been used in the Dell system, it is configured to be used in the Dell. There the drivers for the Dell hardware installed. You will need to identify the current computer's ethernet card, download and install the appropriate drivers for this card.

    It is a method for activation of the phone:

    How to activate Windows XP by phone:

  • Activation of Windows after the end of support

    For example, that I will continue to use vista for older games and software, but sometimes there is no need to reinstall if something is wrong (I had problems with the updates and reinstaled vista, after that it works well). And my scanner is not scanning software for windows 7, so I need old Windows.

    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.
