• Windows vista for upgradation of windows 8 has failed with "key can be used to install the retail version of windows", although I'm having a valid license

  Hi all

  It is my first ever question to this community. I have Vista pre-installed PC. Recently, I bought a license key 8 Windows for upgradation.

  I tried the upgrade of windows 8 for Wizard to upgrade and I entered the license key, then I got the error that ' key cannot be used to install the retail version of windows.'. So, what should I do. Help me please upgrade to windows 8 with my key.

  I tried the upgrade wizard on my vista PC.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  The product key you use to install could be a volume license key, you can contact your network administrator to download the iso from this site http://msdn.microsoft.com/ and install the W8. The W8 will be key during the installation or is installed with the default key that will work for 30 days. If it is installed with a default key, you can change the product key with the suite of measures

  -Run as administrator command line
  -Enter the following command

  slmgr.vbs-ipk TYPE-YOUR-KEY-RIGHT-HERE
  -Now go to the properties of your computer and click on activate Windows.

  She's... You are finished with the activation of new volume Windows8 license.

• What is the difference between Windows 7 OEM and the retail version of Windows 7?

  Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

  Can someone tell me, what is the difference between windows 7 OEM and sales vs retail?

  There is no difference in the product itself.

  Although if you get a generic OEM full version, it contains the
  even software, it has the following disadvantages compared to the
  commercial version:

  1. the biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is
  that its license it permanently binds to the first computer, it is
  installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold,
  or given (except with the original computer). If the computer
  dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

  2. he can't do a clean install, not an upgrade.

  3 Microsoft offers no support for OEM versions. You cannot call their
  with a problem, but rather to secure the necessary support of your
  OEM; who take in charge may go anywhere between property and non-existent. Or
  You can get support elsewhere, like in these forums.

  Good. You should always do that whenever you buy a used computer.
  Risks are good if you don't.

  You do not reformat first before installing Windows. You
  Just do a clean install and do that begins by reformatting
  the disc for you.
   
  Just boot from the Windows CD (if necessary, change the boot order in)
  the BIOS to CD drive first) and follow the prompts for a
  clean install.

• If I buy the retail version of Windows 7 Home Premium can I use the key to product again if I have to reinstall?

  Original title: first installation

  purchase windows 7 Home premium full version IM on best buy and I want to know if something happens to my pc and I reinstall windows 7 again once that I have to use a new product key or can I still use the same serial number im dvd original buy next week?

  You can reinstall as many times as you like on the same PC. No need for a new product key.

  There is a slight chance after the 5th reinstall or significant physical changes, you may need to reactivate by phone:

  1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
   
  (2) press the ENTER"" key.
   
  (3) select your "country" in the list.
   
  (4) choose the option "activate phone".
   
  (5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
   
  (6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• If I buy a copy of the oem version of Windows 7 is it possible to upgrade to Windows 10?

  * Original title: need help

  If I buy a copy of the oem version of Windows 7 is it possible to upgrade to Windows 10?

  Yes, you can upgrade from versions of Windows 7 OEM to Windows 10:

  • How to download official Windows 10 ISO files
  • How to: upgrade previous versions of Windows using the file ISO for Windows 10

  Please note that you must take advantage of the free upgrade offer before July 30, 2015.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)
