• trying to find my product key to activate windows 7

  Mid-October of this year, I had a computer tech check my laptop because it was not working properly. He said my email has been altered, it installed windows 7 Professional and now computer request product key, my screen is black, each time I start up & won't keep a photo that I put on the laptop is a Windows Vista with intel Centrino inside. where do I find the product key to activate this version of windows? He also says in my Windows Essential 2012 programs. I am a layman when it comes to things like that. any suggestions, before buying a new laptop?

  Windows Vista product key should be at the bottom of your laptop or the battery box (you may need to remove the battery).  What about other applications that may have installed, they should be inside the box of the product with the installation media.

• Can't use the product key to activate Windows 8

  Original title :-2147023450

  Because my new phone Samsung (which has been activated online) does not have a product key Windows 8 I download Belarc, which shows the product key.

  I used this product to update key.  Microsoft has refused to acknowledge this product key.

  This key cannot be used to activate Windows 8. In addition, your new laptop Samsung if it came preloaded with Windows 8 should already be enabled. The only thing you had to do was to connect to the Internet and it would activate automatically.

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  If you have problems activating, try to do a Reset and attempt to activate again:

  You have two options:

  If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

  · Click settings

  · Click change PC settings

  · Click general in the left column

  · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

  Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

• I need a product key to install windows.

  My hard drives of computers were completely destroyed by overhead sprinklers during a fire. I have the disk to reinstall windows 8. now he asks me the product key, there is no product key on the disc. I lost the manual that came with the system. During this time, I don't have access to the internet until I have install windows. Thank you.

  What do you mean you 'assume' it was Windows 8?  You don't know?  It is 8 or 8.1?  Because it seems that the original system was destroyed on the functional level, and because versions OEM of Windows 8 and 8.1 have incorporated into BIOS product key, you will need either to obtain assistance from the manufacturer of the computer or, more likely, buy a license.

• I have no product key for my windows vista... I need help... pleaze!

  
  

  I have no product key for my windows vista... I need help... pleaze!

  If Windows Vista is already installed on your system and your system still works (even if only in safe mode) so you can be lucky.  There is a product called Belarc Advisor: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html which can be installed on your system and can retrieve the product key in the system files (only Vista does not provide this feature).

  If you can not enter your system, it has already been formatted or something like that, there is very little that can be done.  There is no place that keeps a record of the product keys related to individuals (or computers) that can be checked and Microsoft will not give without proof of purchase product keys (which IS the key product - the sales receipt or even the disc itself is not enough).  You can't even borrow a disk from someone else because you need your product key to activate the program.  The only choice is to buy another product (you'll probably need a commercial full version as an upgrade will not work on a non-production system or one where you cannot install a product allowing to level).

  You can TRY to get Microsoft to activate your system without a product key if you have the disk (there are codes on the disc, which mean it is valid or not), but I doubt it will work but may be worth a try.  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain that you have lost your product key, but the disc and it's the same PC.  They can give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista (or they have very probably you will say you are out of luck and they can not help you).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck! Lorien - MCSA/MCSE/network + / A +.
