My Halo CE says that my product key is not valid after I have install and update the game.

I install my copy of Halo CE on my computer. I enter the product key and accept the key. I update my game and everything is still fine then. After that I restarted the game as required, he said that my product key is not valid. I do not understand why he said it. I know that it is valid. I used the said product key to unlock the Halo Reach for this Halo nameplate on the site Web of Bungie. I'm not sure why this is happening. In addition, this product key is not the key supplied with the disc. I lost my old drive and had to borrow one from a friend.

Hello

1. your friend is also using the same product key?

    Oh I'm so angry.  I just went through the whole process of formatting a hard drive and reinstall XP Pro.  It worked just great, but she needed ALL the updates since something like 2002.  So, I went through the whole process which took ALL DAY yesterday... excluding the svc pak updates because the error above already happened once.  I assumed it was because all the other updates were missing, where my decision to make all others updated first.  Now I'm here, after every single update, the computer was working FINE until I installed 2 Pk Svc.  Now I'm just at the beginning.  Please tell me there is a way to remove it without having to reformat and spend another day fixing this bloody nightmare.  I mean really... the program should not be designed to not install if it is the wrong program to start?  What outrageous.

  • Product key is not valid after the re - install Windows 7.

    Original title: assistance required with Activation.

    Separated from this thread.

    I have the same question by looking at the subject of this thread.  I'll explain my problem.  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L670, which has Windows 7 above.  In order to run a specific program, it called for Windows 7 Professional, got the unlocked key this portion ran the program without problems so far.

    Recently ran a upgrade to Windows 8 problem, someone else has started to use the major problems of the computer.  Has decided to restore the computer to Windows 7.  Entered product key codes, but the computer is showing the products are not authentic.  I have the key for Windows 7 and Windows 7 Pro unlock codes, but it contains the code of the key is not genuine.  Suggestions?

    Here are my options in terms of original software for this software:

    1. He is currently a Windows 7, which came with the computer - tell me how to remove the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro
    2. I have an upgrade to Windows 7 Pro key - work not
    3. I have an unregistered Windows 8 upgrade that, I uninstalled it due to the update of loop that drove me crazy

    Thanks in advance

    Use your Tosh recovery disks, starting from them and reinstall win7 as pre-installed by Tosh.

    PS It would be quite unusual for a program to require a specific version of win7, what is this program?
