Problems activating windows 7

OK, so my laptop Lenovo is about 2 years old. All the rubbish on it he was slowing down and I didn't put any bloat ware on it, so I decided to go with a new copy of windows 7 instead of lenovos recovery and install all necessary drivers myself. If everything went well until what I tried to activate it. When I try to activate, it says code error 0xc004e003, and said that the key is not valid. I tried to phone activation and MS says the same thing that the key is not valid. Whats is funny when I click on the button that says buy a new key, it says "Welcome to windows, because the version of windows installed on your pc is valid, enjoy...". "It doesn't give me even a link to buy. Any ideas?

You cannot use a key OEM_SLP with retail media.

You MUST use the key of your COA sticker.

You must change the product key to the one on the COA sticker on the case of the machine (or in the battery compartment), using the link change the key of product at the bottom of the system properties page.

You may need to activate by phone.

    OEM Windows 8.0/8.1 Professional (Major) comes with downgrade rights.

    Windows 8.0/8.1 Professional Retail doesn't.

    For OEMS of Windows 8.1 a single system locked preinstallation SLP key is a unique 25-digit product key integrated in the UEFI BIOS.

    For Windows 7 OEM SLP credits is entered from the installation media. This key works only if the markers in the BIOS are present, it is that the BIOS is checked by the OEM. For this reason, you need to an OEM license and support OEM installation.

  • Problem activating Windows XP Pro on a Dell Dimension 4600, which originally had XP Home

    I have some difficulty to activate MY PERSONALLY PURCHASED VERSION of Windows XP Pro on a Dell Dimension 4600 workstation that initially provided with XP Home.  I have TWO Codes of 25 character key true = 1 The printed on the sticker on the computer AND the one supplied with the disk I bought for my laptop that was stolen last week.  I entered two key during the windows process codes activate and they the system tells me invalid or incorrect product key code.  I WAS talking with a Microsoft Tech Rep on the phone trying to solve this problem and has been disconnected when put on "Hold" and now cannot get through to a real person again.  CAN SOMEONE ' ONE/SOMEONE' HELP ME PLEASE?

    Hello

    Both your XP, the laptop and the Dell operating systems will have been oem licenses. OEM licenses are tied to the computer that they were originally installed on. In regards to the Pro license you can see in your report where is says Windows license Type: OEM System Builder.

    The only XP version that can be legally charged to your Dimension is one that has been provided with it by Dell, i.e. the XP Home license.

    activation of character for home 25 codes do not work with the Pro, the reverse is also true.

    You buy a genuine Windows 7 license. The copy of Windows 7 Ultimate, you have installed is an OEM SLP license that should only be preloaded with a new PC. You seem to have installed a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate that uses an activation exploit that bypasses the product activation.

    We know that it is because you are using a generic motherboard

    In addition, he is a well known Windows 7 Ultimate license which has been used all over the web:

    Windows product key: *-* - X92GV - V7DCV-P4K27

    Also, your installation of Microsoft Office is not genuine:

  • Problem activating Windows 7 64 bit.

    Activation of Windows 7 64-bit issue,

    Im trying to test my software on a laptop 64 bit, my original OS is installed on a PC.

    Do I have to buy another copy of the operating system, in order to test my designs of software on another computer, or can it be solved otherwise? Help, please.

    I'm confused.

    It's the (Windows 7 64-bit) operating system or the software that is installed by giving you the activation number?

    Each installation of Windows 7 must be activated, that peer machine license. If you are using a license that was already being used elsewhere, then you must purchase a new license.

  • Problem activating Windows after you refresh

    I bought a laptop with original windows 8 that has been activated. After somedays, I updated the system (from settings) and the computer shows that windows is not activated. When I try to activate windows is showing the error Code:-0x8007232B (the DNS server does not exist). I tried to activate it by "slui 4.exe", "slui 7.exe"; It is still not get activate. After refreshing, it's showing that I have a version of the Insider. What should I do?

    There is a difficulty here: Windows has not been activated - DNS name does not exist - how to fix - chipperfields.net

    This is typical of corruption caused the installation of HP Factory which is the worst in the industry, with a dozen utilities buggy that duplicates and interfere with the better built-in to Windows versions.  That's why no tech fan wouldn't the installed at the factory, but most rather make a Clean install Windows 8 or 8.1 .

    With the key of product shipped on this PC, you can also Clean install Windows Upgrade 10.

  • Problems with Windows 7 activation by phone

    Hello

    I have re-installed Windows 7 on my computer, no change of equipment except the hard drive repartitioning. I have not activated windows within 30 days. I am trying to activate windows online after installation. I get the message error 0xC004C008. That's why I launched telephone activation.

    After entering the installation ID, the phone disconnects. I tried twice with the three figures suggested by the Microsoft - free toll as paying website. But the result is the same.

    I stay in India (Bangalore). Can anyone suggest me another way to solve this issue / obtaining the active product?

  • I tried to open a bookmark and its opening in an active window, such as an image, not a separate tab or window. What is going on?

    I had problems with Firefox hanging (seems related to Flash on a particular Web site). During his last hours of troubleshooting, including on the phone with the assistance of my ISP, it was recommended I "Refresh" of Firefox. I've done it before, and I did it yesterday again. This morning I opened Firefox to my homepage (my ISP Portal), checked my email, disconnected from the email, this tab closed, open two other forums and Photobucket - three tabs open in the window - to post pictures and contribute to the discussions in the forums. Once completed, I've disconnected from forums and Photobucket, each firm separately tab, and then quit Firefox. (While in Photobucket, Flash has crashed several times... but this is not unusual with Photobucket in my experience. It's a different problem, I always deal with... but he immediately forgets...) As part of "Refresh" yesterday, I set Firefox to clear the cache and cookies and other files to quit.

    Later in the day today, I opened Firefox, portal of my ISP opened as usual and expected (my "Home page"). Sometimes, instead of close the window/tab, I just open a bookmark and it will open in the same window, but by replacing the previous window and its contents. I.e. the procedure normal functioning for me. You know, rather than having two windows open where I have to close one, I have just the bookmark opens instead of the original content of the window.

    Today (and it happened before today, but rarely), open the bookmark page as if it was a picture in the active window... otherwise said, my ISP Portal occupies about 3/4 of the window, but more on the left side of the window (not another tab or a window, but in the same window) is a thin view bookmark page. This new web page - quite foreign to the original page - has a scroll down bar, but can be made to fill the window... the previously opened web page acts as a barrier to the pleasure of the 'new' image/web page. While I can understand the right border of the "new framework" and drag it to the right, he still cannot push the 'old' web page of origin of the road... the old page reached a minimum limit and I get a split screen of two completely different websites mode contained in exactly the same active window.

    The 'new' frame has an 'x' at the top right, so I could close... but my question is, why it is opened in web page/window...how from a completely different company can two web pages from completely different organizations/companies/websites are the same active window in Firefox? I have... attached screenshots. And, oh yes, not to mention that the HOW and WHY, how can you prevent (or is the best thing to just right click and open in a new tab or window...?) Which is not always convince me... I am someone who needs to know WHY something happened that should not have happened. It drives me crazy when something strange happens and the 'solution' is to change MY behavior. (You know, like if YOU were the problem, but I need to change MY behavior Instead of correct what's wrong with YOU... When YOU could make all of the obsolete situation.)

    Thanks for everything you can suss out...
