Just spent AU $200 for Windows anytime upgrade home premium to professional. It could not be updated, what now?

Hello

The upgrade began and failed after 45secs.

Page left no option other than to retry the upgrade and it read the key to upgrade automatically.

After he failed at about the same time without direction on how to proceed at this time.

I'm told that the key is that bad for my version of windows upgrade 7.

Funny how there was no indication on the screen (desktop) windows upgrade I chose something other than the CORRECT version.

  • Activate Win 7 after anytime upgrade Home Premium to professional

    A couple of weeks ago, I bought a Samsung PC with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed PC world. At the same time, I also bought an Anytime Upgrade to Windows 7 Professional that I installed. When I click on computer/properties, which shows that I am running Windows 7 Professional. When I try to activate Windows using the product key that is specified in the properties of the computer it is rejected as invalid. When I change the product key that is indicated under the keyboard/back of PC is rejected it saying it will not work with this edition of Windows 7 - I have to either run the program installation of Windows 7, either enter a product key Windows 7 Professional. When I enter the Anytime Upgrade to professional product key it is rejected with code 0x8007000D (these data are incorrect).
    I've searched high and low. How can this problem be solved?
    Thank you

    Do a upgrade Express from Home Premium to professional would have required that you enter the product key Windows 7 Professional before. So, if you are running Windows 7 Professional now based on operating an Express upgrade, the license must already be enabled, or you can use the activation option, see the following:

    Activate Windows 7 on this computer:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/activate-Windows-7-on-this-computer

    Basically no one no need to enter the key of product again.

    I just bought a new computer running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium with an upgrade to windows 7 Pro. I have the PIN # for the upgrade, but I can't get the site to come www.windows7.com/get key. How to pass?

    -HP use F9 on most of its systems

    -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems

    -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

    -Dell uses F12

    In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.

    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.
