• Do I need a new product key I going from 32 bit to 64 bit?

  I have the 32 bit windows 8 on my PC and bought a £50 product key. But I didn't know that my processor could take 64 bit OS.

  So I was wondering do I need to buy a new product key if I change the same operating system to 64 bit instead of 32-bit?
  I have both drives and I installed the 32 bit, thinking that it could have only 32 bits because it was vista 32. now I realize, there can be 64.

  No, you don't need a new product key, you can use the same product key to install and activate the 64-bit version.

  64-bit Windows 8 comes in handy when you need to deal with at least 4 GB of RAM or more. 8 32-bit Windows can use up to 3.2 GB of RAM. Because the address space of memory is much larger for 64-bit Windows, this means that you need two times more memory than the 32-bit Windows to accomplish some of the same task, but you are able to do much more, you can have more apps open, do things like run a virus scan in the background it will affect the performance of your system. 64-bit Windows 8 is safer too, malicious code cannot easily infiltrate it, drivers are more reliable because they must be signed before it can work with 64-bit Windows 8.

  Regarding compatibility, you need device drivers 64-bit hardware devices, you may have. In addition, there is no 16-bit subsystem in Windows 8 64-bit, which means, your applications must be 32-bit only, not 16-bit Installer or programs uninstaller.

  If you need to upgrade to the 64-bit version, you will have to redo your installed 32-bit custom. You said that you ordered the backup DVD with your order, so you have 64-bit disk.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit. Launch the Windows Easy Transfer utility in Windows 7 and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean installation of 64-bit Windows 8 disc so you can stored there.

  http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

  Once you have done this, just do a clean installation of 64-bit Windows 8 disc. In 64-bit Windows 8 disk, launch Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  Install the 64-bit version:

  Boot from the DVD 64-bit of Windows 8
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 8 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  the HP recovery discs do not normally require an input key product on your part

  It's a good idea to always write it down in a safe place and away from the computer

  Unfortunately, these stickers wear away very easily

  and good luck with it

• I need a new product key for Windows 7. I have a laptop HPG71 VR445AW

  I need to reload Windows7 and I don't have the disk.  The product key is faded and I can't read it.  What should I do?

  Hello

  Unfortunately, neither HP or Microsoft will have any folder of your product key - but you can order a set of HP recovery disks.

  Order HP recovery disks.

  To reinstall windows using these disks will not be required to enter a product key - activation will be automatic.

  A guide on the use of recovery disks to reinstall Windows can be seen at the following link.

• Need a code product key for a change of hard drives. I need key product for the motherboard too?

  computer, I took the hard drive was an emachine with Windows XP home. I had another computer in a place away from giving old IBM computers with no working or deleted hard drives. I put the hard drive of the computer and now its wanting a product key code. I don't know where the original XP product key is for the moment. I do not know what is the product key for the motherboard because it was a used computer. If this does not work, what are my options for access to the info on my hard drive another way?

  The license for installing XP on an eMachines computer will be an OEM is restricted to use on this computer. It cannot be moved to an another computer/motherboard.

  If you want to make true on the new computer, first check and see if this computer has a COA OEM sticker on the case.

  If so, then you have use the product key update tool to change the key and then probably activate by phone.

  If this isn't the case, then your only hope is to see if you can find a reputable provider with stock of XP Home and purchase who then use the tool to update product key with the new key.

• Need to activate Vista, but do not have another product key

  Well, I m using window vista Home premium, but I don, t ve produst the other key to activity from my window

  * original title - I want activity my window vista Home premium but I n, t have another product key, so I did that shoul? *

  Hi gulabsher,

  You don't need a different product key for re - activate Vista or it after a re-installation.  The original supplied with the software should do just fine.  However, it is possible that the automated process will not recognize your original valid product key because he thinks that it is already used (and it is from their point of view - on your own computer).

  If the automated process fails, use the manual method to activate Vista using the correct product key which accompanies the software.  Remember, if it's an OEM license, it can only be used on the same computer, on which it was originally installed and if a retail license, it can be installed on any computer capable of managing this version of Vista, but only on one computer at a time.

  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country
  and click 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 the situation and it is only installed on this PC.  They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista (or explain why there is a problem if they do not).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!
