• Difference between Windows 7 Product Key and product I.D.

  Bought the new laptop HP with Win7 Home Premium installed. During the initial install verified box to authenticate when online. Never entered my product key and now two weeks later, curious to know if my windows has been authenticated. Went to the computer/properties/system to enter my key and Windows Activation:
   
  Windows is activated
  XX xxx xxxxx-oem-xxxxxxx product I.D.

  Product number I.D. is different from my tag Windows key on my pc.

  My question is if my Win7 has been authenticated or what I need to do something else to avoid problems after 30 days. Thanks to advnce.

  Nothing to worry about.  Major computer manufacturers install an image of Windows 7 using a special product key which is linked to the BIOS of the motherboard. The certificate of authenticity (COA) affixed to your computer is there to attest that the Windows 7 operating system is installed. Carey Frisch

• Cannot activate Windows, the product key already in use

  Original title: product key already in use.

  Recently, my computer crashed (power).  Try to avoid problems with my hard drive, I bought the same computer exactly on the line.  I installed my old hard drive on the newest computer and all is well... Except, when trying to activate my Windows Vista Ultimate OS I get the error message "The key of product already in use" Microsoft site confirms that the product key is authentic, but still will not let me activate.  All solutions?

  Your old computer had a "Retail" or "OEM" of Windows installed version?

  OEM versions are related to the 1st motherboard they are installed and can not be activated on another motherboard. The only exception is the 'mother' is exactly the same make / model / part number as the original motherboard.

  Commercial versions can be moved from one computer to another without problem except that the the phone activation may be required.

• Failure of the HP G62 installation windows 7 product key

  I followed the instructions and did a disc of x 17 - 59465.iso.  He tries to install windows, I had better luck with the computer connected to the internet.  However the key product would not take.  I finished the installation.  If you want to activate the product key, and then were.  Without success.  The recommendation was that I had the wrong version of windows 7.  The package installed with service Pack 1.  I've had it confirmed that the computer was delivered before the service pack has been issued.

  Where can I find the pre Service pack 1 Windows to start all over again.  The label indicates that the computer came with Home Prem OA.  Help would be very appreciated.

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/user/viewprofilepage/user-ID/732531

  x 17 - 59465.iso is the ISO of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64 bit.  Let me tell you that most laptops do not come with Ultimate, so the report that the key was for the wrong version is probably correct as you say "label indicates the computer came with Home Prem OA."

• I have a windows vista product id and I want to install xindows xp

  I have a PC, Lenovo ThinkCentre with product ID for Windows Vista (Windows Vista Business OEMAct Lenovo Singapure). I formatted the hard drive and Windows XP intstalled. When I'm in the product ID of the label which is glued on the computer I got the error message "the product Id you entered in not valid. What I can do, I license for downgrade?

  Thank you

  No, you do not have a decommissioning licence, you need to buy Windows XP and the product key, and given that XP is no longer supported, it now costs more buy from XP to Windows 7.

  Your probably better upgrading from Vista business to Windows 7 Professional that supports Windows XP mode.

  You must order a set of recovery disc for the computer from the manufacturer - this will install the appropriate drivers for your system automatically, as well as packaged applications.

  If you have not formatted the disk (or replaced) existing partition recovery may still be present - see your manual for details.

  It is possible to download Vista - see here for more details - http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/57-windows-vista-direct-download-links -, but note that it is not a simple process!
