• I try the installation key OEM Office or upgrade to another version of Vista

  Hi, I had the same problem here.

  until someone shows me at the door, shouting that I have tried the vista OEM key to install office or upgrade to another version of vista, here are the facts:

  -C' is my work laptop.
  -It was installed with a volume work XP pro license.
  -J' changed jobs, negotiated to keep my laptop in the process.
  -I'm legitimate, I don't want the volume from my previous job license.
  -I am reloading the preinstalled version of vista from the CD supplied with the notebook microsoft (not the CD before installing, I wanted a windows clean and neat)
  -L' label on the back of the PC say "vista home premium OEMAct".
  -I am running windows vista Home premium
  -J' I updated my bios to the latest version
  -vista will not activate automatically.
  -J' tried to call microsoft for manual activation. the IDS are recognized (if you try to enter a wrong number, it is said that there is a mistake), but when I hit "next" after having typed the ID told me on the phone, I get an error indicating that the code is wrong.

  a now I get the Activation Assistant 0xC004E002 error when I try to run it.

  I don't see what I did wrong... someone has a lead what to do next, other than reinstalling windows?
  I don't want to bother to reinstall all drivers and applications (openoffice, java, firefox, xnview, avira antivir...) that I just installed.
  And I want a working solution, as I am not really convinced that reinstall windows don't lead me to the same problem on new.

  Thanks in advance.

  Best regards

  Hello

  First of all-> you have a Toshiba laptop?
  If so,-> to the Vista preinstalled on your laptop is already activated!

  The key at the bottom of the device belongs to the OEM of Vista version and it is just a confirmation that you are using a legal Vista operating system.
  The key cannot be used with MS Office and other versions of Vista!

  If you want to upgrade the Vista then you will probably get a new key from Microsoft.

• Install Vista disk and removing an OEM version

  Hello

  I have a Dell Windows laptop that was purchased as an element used by a PC conservator who has installed an OEM version. This has been great so far, the laptop is on its last breath and I bought a disc of Windows Vista complete with its PK. I bought because I know that I can't move the OEM from one computer to another version, so what I want to do is to install the new copy, on that I bought before any transfer.

  Can I do it without losing everything already on the computer and how would actually go to do?

  Thank you very much.

  Thanks, maybe I misunderstood but I just solved the problem, and everything is now finally anyway. But thanks for trying to help me.

• I have an OEM of Windows Vista version on a dying computer. Can I buy the upgrade for Windows 8 and install it on the new PC, I'm building?

  I have an OEM of Windows Vista version on a dying computer. Can I buy the upgrade for Windows 8 and install it on the new PC, I'm building? The upgrade, is published at the same time as I'm rebuilding my PC. I'm just looking to replace my OS. I need Vista.

  Hello

  OEM license is tied to the first machine that is installed on the OEM license dies when this machine dies.

  An OEM license is not transferable.

  And you need a legal edition of Windows, enabled for upgrade.

  There is no use, you buy a license upgrade of Windows 8 by itself as you have to upgrade anything of in the new computer, you build...

  You can buy a license of Windows 8 when it comes out later this year.

  See you soon.

• Is there a possibility of upgrade version OEM of Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit for Windows 7 for free?

  I learned from a few sources online that I can get a 'upgrade' for the version OEM of Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit for Windows 7 free. Is this true? Should I participate in forums feedback for Windows, etc. in order to acquire such a valuable product?

  If not, is there another 'economic' way to get a copy of windows 7?

  Really appreciate your time in answering my question.

  Despite what you may have "competent" wrong, there is no "free" upgrade to Windows 7.  You can buy Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store. Carey Frisch

• We have an oem vista and you have purchased an upgrade to windows 7. This will improve the vista or it won't work, because we have an oem version?

  We have vista oem

  Bought a pack of upgrade
  Worried it does not level as we have oem
  Will I buy a new oem version of windows 7?

  All editions of Windows Vista are eligible for licenses for the Windows 7 upgrade, there are a few flats according to the architecture and edition of Vista you are running and which edition of Windows 7 and you intend to move to the architecture.

  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

• What version of Vista with product key?

  I know that some brands, has their own product keys that do not work on a regular version of OEM of Vista. Is this also the case of Toshiba?

  On the bottom of my X 200 - 21r laptop is my product key sticker. So, I want to know if I can use it with any OEM Vista CD/DVD?

  > know that some brands, has their own product keys that do not work on a regular version of OEM of Vista. Is this also the case of Toshiba?
  Toshiba laptops are preinstalled and delivered with the self-image of Toshiba.
  The image contains the Windows operating system (XP or Vista), Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software.

  The preinstalled Windows (XP or Vista) are already activated and it s is not necessary (impossible) to enter the serial key!

  > On the bottom of my X 200 - 21r laptop is my product key sticker. So, I want to know if I can use it with any OEM Vista CD/DVD?
  This key doesn't work with another version of Vista OEM. It belongs to the Toshiba OEM version which is preinstalled on your laptop!

• What can I reinstall/upgrade Vista Ultimate OEM 32 bit Vista Ultimate 64-bit using the upgrade CD that I bought?

  Please help me with the steps I must follow to upgrade/reinstall my Vista Ultimate OEM 32 bit Vista Ultimate 64-bit.  I bought the upgrade CD, but I keep reading that I can't upgrade, I have to re - install.  How do, or have I just wasted my money?

  Thank you

  David

  The two DVD come in the box of Vista Ultimate.  The same upgrade key works for both.  The procedure is to let the 32-bit version on the hard drive for the verification of license and a custom installation will work.  The hardware hash will be the same and the product key is the same for the activation servers to happen anyway as a repair installation.

• Going to replace my hard drive, I'm unable to use my OEM of Windows Vista 32 - bit with the new drive copy?

  I plan to replace my current hard drive (which is functional, but not surprising in the first place) with a Solid State drive, which will help to my Alienware Area-51 m9750 notebook.  I find a reader fully compatible solid state, but I'm not there purchase Alienware.  I'm currently under Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit), and I still have the recovery DVD used to reinstall the operating system.  I reformatted my hard drive several times using this disc, each time that the deletion of the whole score and starting from scratch.  Every time I did it, I'm never asked to activate my copy of windows, mysteriously turned on when I boot on my new install of Windows for the first time, without even plugging the cable Ethernet first, and my house has no wireless network.

  I wonder, if/when I install a new hard drive, will have a different experience somehow in regards to Windows activation?  I'm unable to use my OEM of Windows copy at all?  Alternatively, my windows mysteriously will activate itself without ever seeing the internet as it does now?

  I love installing Windows and then do not need to activate it, and I hope I have that experience when I install my new hard drive.

  I just want to know what to expect in terms of my ability to use my copy of Vista OEM, and what process I have to go through to make it fully functional.

  Thank you very much!

  The physical hard disk (solid state or record) is not serious for the operating system that is installed on.  As long as the drive is a standard interface and does not require special drivers not work (and most don't), you should have no problem.
   
  The recovery disks you are using are set to read specific information about the motherboard and as long as there is this particular information, that it is looking she will be triggered and doesn't have to go online to activate as the retail of Windows is required to do.  The only problem with this type of activation, it's that if the motherboard fails ever it should be replaced with a similar brand and model or autonomous activation fails and the operating system is an OEM version that is related to this motherboard and cannot be enabled on a newer replacement.

• OEM version of Windows

  I started PC repair services in my area. And especially the client, that they do not have disk to install windows that they have fair windows serial key printed on the CPU or the back of the laptop. Can I use the OEM version of windows to rebuild several computers (of a generator system point of view)?

  You just need a classic Installation Vista FULL disc (one for 32-bit and one for 64-bit - each contains all versions of Vista).  You can use these didks to re - install operating systems; However, you must use the product key provided by the customer and only install the same version of Vista they had on their system and which corresponds to its product key!  If they have a Vista upgrade version, you must first install the program original before you can improve it (you can't just install the full product or the key will not activate).  You cannot use the product keys of these two drives on more than one machine at a time - so if the customer lost its product key you will not be able to help them as they will eventually be uable to activate and who will essentially stop the system.  You just can't use an OEM version of the disc (for one thing - it often contains premanente programs and special device drivers you don "t want to be installed and you do not have OEM rights to do as they have agreements with other vendors that include additional software or information).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Install an OEM version of WIndows XP Home SP2 on multiple computers, "Dell".

  Why is it possible to install an OEM version of Windows XP Home SP2 on multiple computers from Dell and have activated but not saved? Every Dell computer has its own product key sticker, but apparently this key on the sticker does not match the key that is part of the Dell reinstallation CD. I have this key finder utility that displays the same product key from the registry of each computer Dell. And that the key is not the same as the key on the sticker product key of the computer.

  Dell (and other important OEM) have the right to use a special type of results to 1) facilitate easy mass on preinstalled systems deployment and 2) allow a user to reinstall Windows without the headaches of activation (including situations where the COA is not more readable, etc.).  This activation includes a generic product key, called a key SLP (System Locked Preinstallation), and because it is generic for the purposes of OEM activation, he 1) does not work when used by itself and 2) does not match the product key on the certificate of authenticity.  The COA is your rights real run/use Windows software.  Occasionally, you may be asked to activate Windows (because of the corruption, hardware replacement, installation media unpaired, etc), in this case, the COA product key will work to activate Windows.  With Vista + your COA product key can be used to activate an installation from the media non - SLP (or "retail"), although telephone activation is usually required.  Although generally, it will install and activate, you are ONLY allowed to install Windows using SLP/OEM media on computers that have an accompanying person and COST of qualification for this OS (or down).

• Is it possible to download an OEM version of win 7 home?

  Here's the bottom line. The system not supplied with recovery CD or a partition recovery and user (my cousin) did not even though the system itself. Windows should now be reinstalled (virus) but I can't find an OEM version that will work with the key on the COA sticker on the system from a trustworthy source. I know experiences from the past that some version will not accept the OEM on the COA key and I am looking for one that will. I have already contacted the manufacturer and they have / provide no CD of restoration for this model.

  Thank you for your time.

  Commercial version will work with your OEM product key

• Driver problem audio dc7800 on the new version of vista

  Hello

  Ive rebuilt a dc7800 with vista ultimate, Ive used the drivers from the HP site for audio, vista installs its own drivers automatically in a first time, Device Manager indicates that they work well, but no sound, so I get the driver for vista off HP site, those in Device Manager, install manually again, vista said they work they are not... If I try and just use the executable on HP website for vista drivers, I get a message saying my hardware is different from installing drivers Im for and installation will not be completed, I so try and add them manually with the *.inf in Device Manager, it adds this way, but they are just used to work...

  Ive has spent a lot of time on it, scoured the forums... Can anyone help? It should be a model of support for vista because it comes with vista enterprise... edition, so there must be a pilot on board sound somewhere for me

  Ive tried the audio drivers for all versions of vista provided on the download page of hp drivers, Ive also tried the xp drivers, Ive been to the realteks site and got the driver generic 29 MB for vista that suggest of some forums, what does not work too...

  Please can someone help?

  Right, Ive solved... FINALLY! If anyone else has this problem heres whats happened... The card Radeon HD 3450 what ive put in the willing dc7800 of an HD Audio Controller integrated into the jury! NA not yet realize that... then I disabled the system HD Audio integrated on the dc7800 and it works fine now! I was that combining HD Audio in the bios as my advice on sound and since I wanted to use that was the last thing I thought of deactivation... but disabling that so it uses the controller audio HD built on the Board now gives me perfect sound through the onboard sound... job done
