Possible corperate corrupt or expired license for Windows Xp PRO

One time, I bought a laptop with the already downloaded software.

Recently I went down load new software and it would not complete itself, said something to the effect of some file was missing.

I then in the Xp Pro updates in the hope that it would fix the problem.

Once there, Microsoft has verified the legality of my software and poster possibly my software has been corrupted or the coperate license has expired. For the life of me I don't know who it is, is that I am not very computer.

This camera cell phone with 'no windows installation disk' Windows Xp Pro.

My question is this, is there a way to solve this problem with losing them all my programs?

And if so, please point me in the direction to go.

Thank you for reading this.

What is the brand and model of the laptop? Is there a sticker Microsoft Windows certificate of Authenticity on it somewhere (usually the bottom)? If so, what version of Windows is listed? XP Pro, HP or something else?

What was the exact message that you received from Microsoft? Note that there is no such thing as a "showing" for Windows license.

Did you buy this laptop of opportunity by chance? If so, it is possible, there was once a version of volume license for XP Pro, which has since expired.

  • Licenses for Windows 7 Pro on a redundant "Server"

    I support for a local dental practice (~ 12 workstations) and, recently, their waiter, who was 10 years old dies and we moved on to a more recent machine. Because of the dental software they use, there are restrictions on this operating system, they can use. Therefore, because it is not in a domain configuration, we ran Windows 7 Pro on all machines. In order to avoid the 2-3 days of chaos, if the server is down, I want to put up with a redundant server (same hardware, same o/s, same configuration, always enabled for database backups can be loaded on it).

    • Is it possible to run this server in the license limit without buying an additional license of W7?

    I am aware that there are other ways around this problem. However, given that this will be a server that can be installed immediately in case of failure of the system on the primary server, I want to avoid potential problems when you connect to this hot spare in their network.

    All advice is appreciated.

  • Portege R500 - Toshiba does sell OEM licenses for Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Portege R500 with Windows XP.
    I have now installed a version of Windows 7 without activation to see if all the drivers are working (Windows 8 is not supported I know).

    Everything looks good and Windows tells me now as planned, it is not authentic and propose to buy the license, but when I go to MS it fails (it seems that MS sells not more Windows 7).

    Toshiba sells licenses for Windows 7 for a R500 OEM?

    It would be a shame to throw it away because of this.

    Thank you
    Markus

    All you can do is to order a Toshiba Recovery disk.
    The recovery disc contains exactly the same operating system that was preinstalled on the laptop on the first day of purchase.

    In your case, this means that you will get the recovery with Win XP OS disk.

    As Timox said: If you want to use the other system than Win XP, you must purchase the Microsoft operating system.

  • I have a valid license for Windows XP key code, so why the system tells me it is not currently active or real?

    Windows has no

    I had to spend my PC this morning. Moving it, I decided to implement a new network card. When I reconnected it all the cables, I plugged my USB mouse on another USB port where it had been plugged in before. The computer is more than 7 years old and I've never had a problem with the front Windows Validation. I have a valid license for Windows XP key code, so why the system tells me it is not currently active or real?

    When Windows checks to see if you have moved your copy of Windows to "another computer", among other things, that his focus on the identification of several strands of material in the computer to see if they are different than when Windows was first installed.  I do not remember the list for now, but I remember that the network card is one of the pieces - and IIRC it is 'valuable' higher than others to reach the conclusion.

    You probably other elements has changed over the past seven years and now Windows has decided to have a "new" computer  Assuming that you haven't changed the motherboard - if you had, you would have had this issue at the time wherever you did--your installation is still legal.  Reactivate using your original license key. It should work online, but you will need to call the number that appears in the error message from re - validate.

    Product keys are not sold separately, but you can buy a license for sale at retail and use the packaging product key:

    Microsoft is no longer at the price of Windows 7 because it ended sales in October 2013, so you will have to turn to third party providers who might still have in stock. Please note, due to demand and scarcity, there could be no available retail license and you may have to settle for licenses OEM System Builder, which are just as effective but come with license restrictions (which to be honest, are not a lot of weight, given that all future versions of Windows are full anyway (Windows 8.1 and later) versions. Please note that you must purchase the corresponding edition that corresponds with the drive you have:
