I hope that I have ave explained it well enough for someone to solve these issues. Dale a lot thanks

  The question of activation is because you cannot use a Dell OEM of Windows version to activate on a Sony.

  The questions ImageSensor and mass storage controller are likely due to the fact that the Dell installation media is not the device driver appropriate for your Sony computer motherboard.

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

  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.

  Ask them if 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 own way of making 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

• My laptop was stolen, but I have the Windows 7 product key. Can I disable it?

  PLEASE, DO NOT RESPOND WITHOUT HAVING READ THE FIRST POST! IM NOT ASKING IF I CAN TRANSFER THE PRODUCT KEY ON ANOTHER COMPUTER! My laptop was stolen, but I have the Windows 7 product key.  Can I disable Win 7 for this laptop so they can not use it?  I don't want to transfer the product key on another computer, nor am I asking questions on the follow-up to the computer I bought a computer brand new with a perfectly good copy of win 7. I just need to disable the old key so that they get the Windows 7 is not geniune message and can not get updates.  Furthermore, I have a proof of purchase (original receipt from reception and cc) and entered it in the original box.

  IM NOT ASKING IF I TRANSFER PRODUCT KEY ON ANOTHER COMPUTER!

  IM WONDERING NOT IF I CAN FOLLOW USING THE COMPUTER WIN 7 PRODUCT KEY!

  If you know the correct product key, you can block the user in use- but it won't stop them reformatting and reinstalling using recovery disks from the manufacturer to reinstall using the OEM_SLP key - and it would also prevent your use your laptop must be returned.

  You must contact one of the centers of activation and inform them of the keys and the circumstances.

  They will then issue a global block on the key (which can take a long time) which will result in any attempt to validate or activate any system with this key, which gives a non-genuine message on the desktop - it will NOT prevent the use of the system, and it will NOT stop the user both take steps to steal the data and/or reformatting/reinstall.

  Also note that the key on the COA sticker on the case of the machine is not normally the one in use,- and if the key OEM_SLP is still in use, MS can take no action at all, as thousands of others would be affected.

• Hello. I have a valid 25-character product key, but I don't know if it's for vista or windows 7.

  The license under the laptop sticker is very thirsty, and I can only read the product key.  How can I tell what windows I have to re-install with and make sure that windows is a genuine copy. I have a message to appear now that it is not authentic.  I bought this used and they have windows 7 installed now.  Could someone please help with this.  Thanks in advance.

  Your installation is not authentic - it has been "activated" by use of RemoveWAT to break an obligation to activate and validate Windows.

  The machine is a Hewlett-Packard-built in 2008, well before the release of WIndows 7 - and claims to have all sorts of things she gives the right to use Win7 - but the result is that it may NOT be authentic.

  You must revert to the original operating system with which the machine has been installed and then upgrade (if you want) with a Windows 7 Upgrade moral.

  You should contact HP and order a set of recovery disc for this machine - check the serial number and other details first. and then reinstall it after saving your data to external storage.

  Your other option is to raise a complaing with the seller and/or the payment mechanism (Paypal/BC/CC, etc.) you have used.

  Since you seem to be in the United States, there is a good chance that the FBI would be interested by what you have to say - they are responsible for software counterfeitng - and a mention of this to the seller can bring dramatic results!

• Lack character product key.

  I have a laptop that I am trying to install Vista, but the product key on the bottom of the laptop is rubbed until I can't do any of the characters. Is it possible to determine what is the lack of character based on the rest of the key code?

  Craig Dedon,

  Even if you have not specified, if you try to reinstall and you are still able to start in a vista environment, you can retrieve the product key in the system files.

  Method 1:
  Click Start, in the Search type 'System' click the exact result.
  It will open a window with "view basic information about your computer. as part of the Windows activation , you will find product ID and your key next to him.

  Method 2:
  Use your favorite search engine to find finder key 3rd party utilities. (you accept sole responsibility for any 3rd party software, that you choose to download and run on your computer, make sure that you validate the security of any software you choose to run by looking for authenticity).

  Where have you bought Vista from? A product key should have been included with the installation disc - checking that came inside the box.

  If you have lost a product key for the software you purchased separately from your computer, or if your product key does not work, call Microsoft. To locate the phone number, visit the following Microsoft Web site: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh; CNTACTMS

  Hello

  If Vista was preinstalled on your computer, read this information:

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  It may still be there after installation of XP

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  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:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

• I have a Windows 7 product key that has worn

  It's on an Acer; the computer no longer works.  I wanted to use it on my Dell Vista upgrade. I have the Acer recovery cd, but it no longer turns.

  This product key is an OEM license that would not transfer rights to another computer in any case.

  Your best option to buy a new license of Windows 7 license for Vista machine or review it migration to Windows 10.

  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  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. »)
