product key activation code?
My aunt died last month, and threw his old computer. the other day, I found its xp disc. I want to put his xp disk in a computer I have at home, but I don't have the numbers of its activation. where can I get the code?
can I get the xp drive some how?
any info would be helpful... Thank you.
Pat
Assuming that your aunt had a typical computer OEM, the product key (and licence) is good only for the PC (that you throw).

A week or two ago I was given an HP computer XP Professional sp3.

My laptop came with a Windows 7 Basic program trial and the trial ended so I bought a product key for Windows 7 Professional, because I got a discount on that student. When I try to activate it, it says I need to enter the product key for what I already use but I don't know the key to it. What am I doing here? Do I have to buy a product key for my Windows 7 original also?
Windows 7 Home Basic Edition is not a trial.
Is the Windows 7 Professional a full, level or Express upgrade?
Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.
When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer
Click on properties
Scroll down to the Windows Activation
Click the link x days before activation.
Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.
Enter the product key
Click next
Select the Activation of the phone
Click Next when you enter your key page
Select your country
Click Next, call the number listed
Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.
Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent
They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it
Click next to complete the activation.
However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.
15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.
So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

Update Windows 8 pro 8.1 pro - product key/activation required?
I have a dell latitude E5530 it came preinstalled and active with windows 8 pro. I get guests to update to 8.1 and indeed when I go to store the link is available. However, I want to know if I need the product key for this upgrade? Will I need to reactivate after upgrade? If so how can I get the current installation product key? The upgrade will also default 8.1pro?
Thanks for your help, I know that these issues are pretty basic but I can't seem to find the answers in the son and I saw the charges based on complaints from upgrade so I'm trying to be careful.
The product key for the 8.0, you already is built into the system (it was on stickers on the laptops, but now it is embedded in the BIOS of the motherboard).
The 8.1 update is a service pack, so it won't change your product key or activation, and no new key is required. It's just a set of updates.

Product key Activation fails constantly activate
I installed upgrading the teacher of Windows 7 on a Macbook Pro using Parallels and it does not allow me to upgrade Windows Vista I have already installed in Windows 7 by activating the product even though I retype permanently the activation key product in the fields of the query. MS is not an email or phone number to call for this problem, which is itself ridiculous. What can I do? Why does he refuse to activate? Any ideas?
You can use telephone activation.
activation by telephone (call of the operator)
Click the Start button
in the search box, type
SLUI 4
and press the Enter key
Follow the instructions, but when asked what service you need the ansafone phone, don't answer - it should oblige the operator to answer, who can deal with you

I need a new product key for Windows 7. I have a laptop HPG71 VR445AW
I need to reload Windows7 and I don't have the disk. The product key is faded and I can't read it. What should I do?
Hello
Unfortunately, neither HP or Microsoft will have any folder of your product key - but you can order a set of HP recovery disks.
To reinstall windows using these disks will not be required to enter a product key - activation will be automatic.
A guide on the use of recovery disks to reinstall Windows can be seen at the following link.

Unable to activate Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 with original product key
I have a disc original Windows 7 Home Premium and had to reload recently on my new desktop. Everything went well but he will not be activated. I made a mistake in typing the product key. activation of the phone does not work in my country, since the number is interrupted (South Africa). I'm not ready to shell out more money to upgrade to 8.1 Windows, because my software is not compatible.
Probably I should still be able to activate this product? Always taken its support.
Any help would be appreciated.

Toshiba has replaced my hard drive under warranty, and now my activation code/product key is "invalid" Toshiba said to contact Microsoft - Microsoft said to contact Toshiba. I don't think I should pay something for this problem. All I want is basic programs is the computer when I bought and lost because of a defective hard drive. It came with Windows vista Home premium. Any suggestions? The FRY was no help either.

I have not recently installed any software, etc. I shut down my computer last night and when I tried to start this morning, I received the following error message:
"The product key of Windows Vista Home Edition Premium you typed is invalid for activation". I gives me three options to fix this problem:
1. access your computer with reduced functionality. (This also will allow you to buy a product online key).
2. enter a different product key.
3 contact Dell to help solve this problem.I tried to re - type the product key that is listed on the bottom of my computer and I received the 0xC004F050 error code. I tried typing the key again (to make sure that I had typed correctly the first time) and I got the same failure code.
I looked in the old posts in your forum of answers and I could not find any information to help out me.
To clarify, I don't have access to my Start menu. When I connect, I just asked to select one of the three options listed above.
