Problem with windows 7 Key

Good so I bought a PC from amazon.com and it had no windows 7/8 or anything on it like that. so I had to go buy a his bloody a Windows 7 32-bit windows installation disc, cost me £80, I opened and installed the disk and stuff and he mentions a key that I had no idea so I looked around and could not find, so I continued and completely installed because he says later or something like that. Todayhowever I got a notice that I only
26 days left and so I looked around and I still have the holder for the disc and I saw a picture of a key but when I opened it the snatch of the semester and I can't find there. Any help I can get it please,

Yours sincerely Jake

Unfortunately, you will need to purchase a new license.

What you have is an OEM System Builder License. OEM integrators are normally responsible for replacing media damaged and lost product keys.

If you have lost your Windows product key, Microsoft recommends that you only buy a new.

  • . Corrupt Windows files, problems with fan keyboard keys,

    I had problems with windows 8 for some time. It does not load properly more and takes time. I ran the sfc scan and received a message he had corrupted files that could not be repaired. I also noticed a ticking sound from my hard drive. I ran a repair for the reader and found no problem. These files would be the source of the noise ticking? Also, I have a problem with my fan. Is a kind of grinding noise when the system is turned on. I cleaned up and it is a fairly new system, so I do not think that it should be replaced. What is a software problem? And is there a way to repair the keys that are unresponsive outside replacement. The guy who cleaned the fan forgot something in the screwdriver system directly or very loose keys does not. I removed, but the keys do not work

    Hello Pierre,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have with the corrupted in the computer and other multiple issues in the computer files. Don't worry, we're here to help when fixing these issues.

    But I would like to know some more information on this issue to help you better.

    2. When you get the ticking sound?
    3. Is that when you use an application or program?
    4. You get an error message while, key board is not working properly?
    5. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    In the meantime, please follow the following suggestions to solve the problem.

    Corrupted files may be one of the reasons for the system has as many questions together. So, you can try to manually fix the corrupted computer files and check if that helps. Follow the link below to do the same.

    (See the procedure below: how replace manually a file system damaged by a known good copy of the file)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833/en-us

    And for problems with sounds from the hard disk:

    1. Noises may result from problems mounting. This is due to a high frequency in the mounting material vibration, or a drive failure.
    2. Repeated and regular, tap, grind or beep.
    3. Remove the side panel of the cover of your case and do operate the machine with the lid side for 30 to 60 minutes see if the noise subsides. If the noise disappears, your hard drive is probably overheating, causing the noise.

    You try to run the disk check and see if that helps in the setting of these noises and to detect if the hard drive is damaged or not. Follow the steps below to do the same thing:

    Run the disk check to find and fix errors on the disc.

    (a) click Start, type cmd, right-click on cmd , and then click run as administrator.

  • Big problem with Windows XP, IE8

    I have a big problem with windows xp. Many things do not work as they had passed him. For example the personal setting are not recalled from session to session. IE 8 does not funtion properly (icons on the desktop are re-arraged, toolbars cannot be deleted or I'm unable to load pages from the internet). Programs do not work, the files will not open. When I look at my hard C disk folders and files are hidden.

    Recently, IE has been upgraded to IE8 and I installed Norton 360 but I don't mean that they caused the problem. However, whenever the Norton scan executes a "error 8 506 421" stands up and says me that I have to uninstall and re install Norton.» But I lost the ADMIN privileges so I am not able to uninstall or go back to a restore point.

    I can't go in safe mode. Pressing F8 takes me to the quick screen C not the windows safe mode screen. I can't go in safe BOOT mode. INI or the other.

    If I switch to another user, everything seems fine but I don't have ADMIN privileges with this user to be able to make changes.

    Is this a problem with norton? IE8? A virus?

    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Lost without a computer

    It sounds like you have a corrupted for your user to administrator user profile.

    You may be able to recover using System Restore to restore to a point in time before your problem.  Based on the F8 key, you bring in a command prompt window, try to start restoring the system to the command prompt by using the following procedure:

    "How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with prompt theCommand in Windows XP"

    <>https://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/en-us >

    If this does not work, you can still be able to recover by performing a check disk to your command prompt window operation (after that you press the F8 key).  Enter the following command:

    CHKDSK c: /R

    If you are in the Recovery Console, it can simply begin, or you may need to restart before it will start.  Corrupt profiles are most often caused by the Corruption of system files, so a chkdsk operation should be performed little matter how you end up recovery.  Note that this can take a few hours to run.

  • Problem with Windows Update after the new installation of Windows 7 Pro the Lenovo ThinkPad X 200

    I'm trying to do a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. The product key is easy to find on the sticker of the ThinkPad. However, the version of Windows is hidden (for example, I can't check that my ThinkPad had originally installed Windows 7 Pro). I was able to install by using a Pro Win 7 SP1 CD ROM I bought for another installation. I used the ThinkPad I was trying to make the new facility on the product key. I was able to activate the Windows 7 Pro using the phone call and my cell phone. I checked the activation! However, I have problems with Windows update. The product key may be a different version of Windows 7. If so, why did it install and activate OK? Y at - it a fix for this problem or I have to buy a new version of Windows 7 Pro? Please note that I have not yet installed all drivers Lenovo ThinkPad as I can't seem to install correctly. Thank you!

    Since the issue is updated to Windows, it is not a product number key.

    You can reset the Windows Update components by running the Fixit on this page. But if there is malware present, she will continue to reset the connection to the update servers:

    How to reset the Windows Update components

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

    Suggest you download and save the Fixit. Then configure the system before the clean boot by running:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista/Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Once the Fixit has been downloaded and the system is started in the pure State, check that the native Windows Firewall is now on if a 3rd party firewall has been used previously. Now run the Fixit and choose the default mode. Restart once it's done and see if the system can be connected to the update servers. If he can't, then rerun the Fixit and choose aggressive mode. Turn it back on when he finished the race and updates.

  • I don't even know what to call this problem with Windows 7! Can someone please read and help?

    Hi all

    What is c?

    I have half a dozen problems with Windows 7 right now, but let's start with the most irritating.  Screens disappear and reappear.

    I'll open a window and then open another (at the same time) for a reason, and if I don't have my mouse entirely on whatever the window, it "disappears".  That is, it will become transparent with just sort of 'framework' around him.  The content is gone.  But they come back.  It makes the idea behind 'Windows' laughable.

    And try to block and the copy is a nightmare of one window to the other.  Or even on the same page.  I try to block something and move away, and the "block" disappears.

    I thought it might be my mouse, which is your ordinary Microsoft Optical Mouse 2V.0, I went to devices and printers and formatted my mouse (I've never done this before) and my Microsoft Keyboard and recorded.  Nothing wrong with the keyboard.  The mouse just kept screwing as it did before, and I used your basic standard settings - nothing fancy or different.

    Now I write in this little place and nothing is to move, the mouse behaves - what IS IT?

    I am getting this problem in Windows 7 because honestly, I have no idea where else to put it.

    And I have just started with the problems.  Can you please, please, please help?

    I can't help but think that all the problems are related, so I'll put one little summary of what else is happening.

    1 out of nowhere part, I got a notice saying that I had to change the settings to allow Windows update immediately and without my permission (I think that's what he said and I know that there is a setting in devices and printers? or something like that where I allow edits without review)

    2. I can't convince my printer there is NO residential group and that I am the administrator and the only person using the computer.  This screw with my settings (wired) network too.

    3. I have a four-in-one printer (print, copy, scan and fax).  I am at home lately and will be years apparently, so I decided that I wanted to get the printer scanner and fax.  He was already printing and copying.  I turned off, unplugged and did not know that I had to uninstall all software and then reinstall it.  I don't have the time to do it again; I want a clean computer before you set up the printer.  Well, it seems to create small problems in the world.  I keep getting directed to devices and printers, but I want to read all the information before I uninstall just in case.

    4 modules!  They are the bane of my existence.  I do not understand what they are doing when I go and look at them individually. I tried to use IE10 without addons and it's just a big headache.

    5 constantly getting a yellow banner at the bottom of my screen asking me if I want to run * some * and I wanted to know the risks involved.

    6. constantly asked about Active X.  What is it and what does want of me?

    7. all of a sudden an hour ago, my computer has decided to go to "sleep" mode and wants me to change user for myself and when I do, it says it is locked, but I hit the beautiful image and it opens on the regular Windows screen.  WHY?  I don't use a screen saver and I got 20 minutes sleep mode which is just the entire dark screen until I touch the mouse.  No more!

    Guys do you see why I'm going crazy?  Help, please!  I spend all my days this last week and one before that trying to move things.  All this because I wanted my printer to scan.

    ···

I can use is no longer the fn + key that usually let me adjust the back of my bright keyboard commands, or my volume (mute, raise/lower the volume), however, my brightness on the monitor shortcuts keyboard still works, and so did my black screen key. Oh, and also, my toggle mouse shortcut is not no longer works. I was looking at the forums, and I upgraded my bios and also reinstalled my ATKPI files and still nothing.

Could you please confirm if there is a problem and if the contact was authentic.

    Thank you

    You have made the right choice to reject the call. It's a SCAM well known and is FALSE. Microsoft and partners will NEVER user calls unless you ask them to call or to open a support case. On the other hand there is no way for Microsoft to know who has a problem with PC. Take a look at:
