New drive hard hard time see activation code.

Hi, I have just had a new hard drive for my dell XPS laptop and used a disc to install windows 7. My activation code is on the bottom of my laptop but I'm having a hard time to read about some of the numbers. I can't on my old hard drive because it is unbootable / unreadable. Thanks for the help.

Option 1:

If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

Option 2:

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. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

Option 3:

If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.
