  • I installed Vista in a Virtualbox VM and the product key does not work, how to fix this? I use the same product key supplied with the computer originally.

    I bought a Dell Precision T3400 of Dell Financial Services and it came with Vista Business installed.  I installed a new hard drive and installed Vista in a Virtualbox VM by using the recovery disk that came with the computer, and the product key does not work for activation.  I get a message that says I need to activate Windows, but he says that the product key is not valid.  How can I fix it?

    Thank you

    If you have reinstalled the OEM of Vista Business copy on the new hard drive, as Bill says you can't also use it in a virtual machine.

    You can only reuse your OEM of Vista professional copy if it is no longer used on the computer. Do you have what operating system installed on the new hard drive? It was an upgrade copy or complete the license?

    If you used a license to upgrade to another edition of Windows to replace your copy of company then Vista Business license is still in use (for upgrade) and you cannot reuse it in your virtual machine.

    However if you replaced Vista business with a copy of the full license of another edition then you are able to use the OEM copy in a virtual machine, but only on the same computer. You must use the product key from COA to the label on the computer. The product key is put in the copy OEM cannot find the SLIC table on the host motherboard. You must use the phone activation from within the virtual machine. Click on start in Vista Business and typing "slui 4. Do not meet the audio guests until it asks you if you want to speak to an agent. Explain that you have completely replaced the OEM copy with a copy of the full license of the new windows and now want to use the OEM copy in a virtual machine on the same computer. Agent will then give you the activation string. Remember that the virtual machine is not transferable to any other computer.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are facing the question with the reinstallation of Windows 7 on your computer.

    Because the computer does not recognize the CD - R into the DVD player probably boot order is set to hard drive first. I suggest to change the DVD boot priority in the BIOS and then try to perform the Startup Repair.

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    In order to make changes in the BIOS, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    Method 1:

    Unplug all external devices connected to the computer with the exception of the keyboard and mouse and check if the problem persists.

    M odes 2:

    If the problem persists try the Startup Repair. It is one of the recovery tools in the System Recovery Options menu. This set of tools is on your computer's hard disk and on the Windows installation disc. To learn more about Startup Repair , you can refer to the below mentioned article:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Startup-Repair-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 3:

    In addition, if startup repair is not enough, you can perform a system restore, check if it helps you to solve the problem. For reference, you can see the article mentioned below.

    What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7

    Note: when you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards

  • Error message - the value entered does not match the Format of the field

    I get an error message in Adobe Pro x: "the value entered does not match the format of the field [JF13].

    I have JF13 scheduled as follows:

    Calculate tab:

    If (Number (this.getField("ck4").value) > 0) this.getField("JF13").value = Number (this.getField("FL019").value); else this.getField("JF13").value = "";

    It is programmed in this way, so if the user checks the checkbox in front of the field, only then will JF13 fills a value, which pulls of FL019. I also value parameters 'number' because the data to display in the form of a dollar amount $xxx.xx.

    FL019 is a hidden field on the form which takes an amount of a central computer and its settings can also be programmed to 'Number':

    I get four popup windows with the above mentioned error message, and the only way to make the stop message is to remove the «number» field format. However, when this is done, if a number any ending in a zero is entered, it cuts the zero. This is not acceptable either.

    Is there some kind of script that I could add or otherwise to prevent the error message and the cutting out of the zero on JF13?

    I'm not very proficient with javascript, any help would be appreciated!
