  • I need to reinstall Windows Vista but the sticker on the laptop product key is not readable.

    My partner has an Acer laptop running Windows Vista Basic 32-bit. He needs a complete reinstallation of Windows because there a lot of problems now. The problem is the sticker of the product key on the laptop is often illegible. I tried to use the Magic Jelly Bean finder key to resolve this issue, but the key does not match what the letters which are readable on the sticker. I tried this on my own laptop and had the same problem (sticker key did not key on the computer). Neither laptops have had Windows reinstalled before. I learned that the keys posted by Magic Jelly Bean are in fact license keys of Volume factory installed by the OEM rather than found on the stickers product keys and Volume license keys cannot be used to reinstall Windows.

    His cell phone doesn't have a recovery disk or a recovery partition, but even if she did, given its current state, a complete reinstallation is what it takes. Her cell phone is not come with a Windows Installation DVD, either, but we can borrow one from a friend who owns a disk with the same version of Windows as his laptop and I know that works perfectly. We just need a way to recover the product key that was on the sticker. We are not ready to buy a new copy of Windows that we already have a license (through the purchase of the laptop) key.

    PS I remember that I helped my father after reinstall Windows XP. We tried both the key on the sticker of his PC and the one that we found on the PC itself (Volume key). In the end, only the key on the sticker has worked. This confirms that a Volume license key cannot be used to reinstall Windows.

    Hello

    We cannot help you with your product key and there are no records of loan use

    recovery discs are brand and the specific model

    and product key finder programs will not help you find product keys that you can use vista preinstalled in these circumstances

    to reinstall vista use either disk or recovery partition recovery manufacturer, since they do not normally require an input key product on your part

    The manufacturer must provide a way to reinstal vista or by disk or a recovery Partition

    Contact Acer recovery Vista disc

    https://secure.TX.Acer.com/rcdb/main.aspx?brand=Acer

    and Acer has a "hidden" recovery partition

    Normally with an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the process, or if it is still ongoing, you go to section eRecovery under [programs and search for how to make recovery discs and the use of the recovery partition

  • Product key for windows 7 not readable MS

    The sticker for the product key for MS windows 7 is outlined and 2 characters are not readable. What should I do to be able to reinstall windows?

    Hello:

    You will need to buy a set of recovery disc for your laptop.

    Generally, recovery disks do not require the use of the product key.

    HP and Microsoft will issue a replacement product key to you, nor do they keep a specific record of product on PC keys.

    If you can not buy a set of recovery disc for your model, you will need to purchase a new full retail or the OEM version of windows 7.

  • Product key sticker is not readable, what can I do?

    Hi, I reinstalled windows vista on my laptop, but it has stopped working. I bought windows vista with laptop a few years ago. The sticker key on my laptop is in bad shape and I can read only 3 sets. Is there a way I can get this key? I'm not sure but maybe I had also registered my product with MS also. A way to recover these data? etc.

    Any help is appreciated.

    If you reinstaledl using recovery discs/partiton, there should be no need to use the key from the COA - what drive did you use?

  • Can not find the key to series of Windows 10 on Toshiba Satellite C50-C-1JL

    Hello

    I can't find the product Windows 10 key on my Toshiba laptop. Where the thumbnail? On my laptop or elsewhere? Thanks in advance for your answers

    Windows 8 PCs now incorporate their product in the BIOS keys.

    In the past, a new Windows PC had its product key on a sticker, usually on the side of a computer, and on the basis or at the bottom of the battery on a laptop compartment. But with Windows 8, Microsoft switched gears and now stores and encrypts the key in the BIOS instead.

    Guess that's the same thing to win 10.

    I saw a laptop of HP under Win 10 who has not told sticker.

  • Satellite L670-1EE - reinstallation of Win 7 - key not readable series

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite L670-1EE January 2011
    Now the system completely crashed and I need to reinstall from scratch.

    My problem is, that the first 5 digits of the product key Microsoft are not readable.

    Are there opportunities to get the key, or can I use a special image of Toshiba to retrieve?

    I can't access the installed windows, fails to start, I tried a recovery with a DVD of victory but it didn't work, so I need to reinstall it.

    > My problem is, that the first 5 digits of the product key Microsoft are not readable.
    This key cannot be used as part of the new Windows 7
    It is an OEM key that belongs to the image of Toshiba. For the most part, these keys don't work.

    The point is that Toshiba preinstalled system has already been activated in the image of the Toshiba.
    But there is no need to be activated after the recovery procedure.

    So if you want to use the own system of Windows, you must purchase a license from Microsoft.
    In case you want to use the image of Toshiba, you must use the Toshiba Recovery disk that probably, you have not created in the past. Right?

    In this case, there is another option: you can order this disc from here:

  • Sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable

    Hello Toshiba Help Center

    Please help me solve this problem

    Three years ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba with Windows Vista preinstalled. I also received a DVD with her recovery. I now want to reinstall Windows and completely format the hard drive - however, the sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable. So what I did... I formatted my laptop for windows 7 and after a few months, I want to recover my product key and install windows vista pre - with the original product key that sound now
    unreadable...

    Is it possible to get it back by, my laptop series No, or...

    IM bluebird.jeff

    Hello, Jeff

    At first, I must say that it is not toshiba Help Center, but user forum created by Toshiba, so if you wait for the response from Toshiba people here you are in the wrong place.
    In any case, in this forum, you can pick up some very useful information and a lot of people here can help you with your problems.

    Return to described the issue.
    Unfortunately you do not understand how it works with the product key and Windows Setup, so I'll try to help you with this.
    Each computer toshiba laptop comes with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and the product key at the bottom of your laptop belongs to this version. With other words: when you buy the new laptop, you have to pay for hardware, operating system and a license for this preinstalled OS. Product key at the bottom is not a kind of universal product key and cannot be used for activation of another version of Windows.

    You can use the delivered Toshiba recovery disc that contains mage replicated several times and each time you will have activated the operating system. When you use the Microsoft disk for the installation of the OS you must have valid product key which belongs to this particular version.

    In your case product key is for Vista, and you cannot use it for Win7 activation. This product key is... unnecessary.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • My key Windows VistaTM Starter will not work

    My laptop was bought after 3 years... and now I'm fighting through activation problems.

    When it is freshly installed by my uncle (in fact it has just changed), a technician was there to set up our component; He saw my notebook and asked if he wants me to degrade to XP because Vista is slow... since I'm naïve at this point, I just said yes, not knowing that my uncle made a lot of changes to the laptop.
    For about 1 year, I went through different reformat (after degradation 1 time, I asked him to update back); up to 1 times my license key has stopped working. It's a key Windows VistaTM Starter legitimate , I asked some elderly parents w / knowledge to my problem and said it could be that someone stole my key.
    I said 'No' because the key is known only to me and to the technician. I don't know if it uses it or what, but I can't activate it.
    My laptop does not now, and he's going to need someone to fix soon... but here is some information that might help:
    • I have the media recovery disk, all the stuff for Windows Vista and the LG drive (where you can install display, sound drivers etc..).
    • The laptop model is LG RD405.
    I hope someone could help me. PS; the call of my country cost much so I can't take the phone option especially since I have a bit in hearing deficit... and my position is on the Philippines.

  • key Windows 7 not genuine

    I use windows 7 for three years and today he informs me that this is not a copy authentic. I have my license key.
    I do not use this key on another PC or laptop (I'm not stupid). What should I do?
    Thanks for help.

    an OEM SLP key works with the manufacturers recovery media. any other installation method requires the COA key.

    Computers, which are built by large manufacturers provided with pre-installed Windows are supplied with 2 two product keys:

    OEM SLP: This key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

    COA SLP: it's the product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or at the bottom, [or in the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but must be used only in certain situations (for example, if the OEM SLP key stops automatic activation for a reason any). The key must be activated by phone. (Note: all manufacturers that use the SLP OEM system are bound by contract to include a certificate of Authenticity sticker (COA), which has a COA SLP key, on the computer)

  • reinstalled Windows XP Pro on the new HARD disk, not invited to key code

    My Dimension 9200 needed a new HARD drive. Ordered from Dell, installed HD then re-installed Windows XP Pro sp2. I forgot to unplug the media reader, so I had to reinstall it again to get HARD drive letter assignment as C. Added drivers in good condition and just download and install sp3 and all the necessary updates. Now, all that remains is to transfer all the files from the old HD.

    Never, I was invited to the WinXP key code. I DO have the Dell OEM disc as well as the installation key code in the original Dell factory. I was wondering if anyone else had the same "problem". I checked under administrative tools and don't see anything that ask you "activation". The only thing that I went off and was invited to provide was the key code when I installed MS Office 2003. When I check in system properties, General, it shows that it is registered to me and some numbers with Dell OEM then more numbers, not the OS key code well.

    Anyone can shed some light on this? Thank you

    When you use a Dell OEM media on a Dell computer, it checks the BIOS to make sure that it is install on a Dell computer, then it will be activated automatically, using a generic OEM key.  As long as you have the sticker COST/License/Product Key, you have the right to run Windows on this computer.  That's pretty standard for OEM systems.

    System properties still shows a 'code', not the actual key.  You can use Magic Jelly Bean to retrieve the key used to activate Windows, but the key, that he will return does not match your COA and cannot be used for manual activation.

  • Find product key Windows 8 on a computer that does not start

    I bought a laptop Lenovo, a little over a year and all of a sudden, he started a loop when I try to turn it on. The computer seems to want to start with the Lenovo logo and then I get a blue screen with an irritating "your PC has encountered a problem and needs to restart." We are only collecting the error information and then we'll restart for you. : ("message and then the computer restarts and does it again and again and and more.")

    I brought my friend who is a technician and he said that I need the product key Windows 8 to create the Recovery Disk/USB. So I checked the area in which my laptop has been delivered to and there is no product key is located. Is it possible to find even if my computer does not start? I can access the configuration screen, but I can't find anywhere here either.

    Any help with this would be really appreciated.

    Thank you

    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.

    You must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 8, if its not functional, you should ask a Lenovo recovery media:

  • Transfer of records to memory stick using Windows Explorer works not properly. (Windows 7 64-bit)

    I use sticks of memory to copy my photos and documents from my computer for backups of these elements.

    I currently have about 8 000 photos that I try to copy computer to stick.

    The total size of the pictures is about 18 GB, and I use 32 GB sticks. I have four different sticks, from three different manufacturers, and the problem occurs on all four sticks.

    The photos are in "My pictures", who are then in albums, sous-albums, then sub-sub-albums, everything in "Images", which is located in "libraries."

    Reproduction, which has more than 12 hours, it looks like it works OK, but when I check the files on the memory stick a lot are missing!

    Some photos are missing from some albums, and many albums is not there at all.

    I did this for several years, but this problem just started. (It is about six weeks, since I've finally done it.)

    Can someone tell me what I am wrong dong?

    Not all USB keys are of equal quality.

    Personally I would use a portable hard drive.

    12 hours for 18 GB of data is excessive

    Assuming that a brand PC made the mistake of using win update for "Recommended updates" rather than just Important?

    A run/installed any new utility prior to the problem occurring?
