Product key and installed program do not match windows 7 Home premium
I bought a new Dell laptop and it came with windows 7 home premium installed and a diskette of drivers and every time I wonder to record the product key it tells me that it is not the key. I'm going by what is on the label, and I think that I don't have to buy another key product or program windows 7 because I have both and the older two of 10 months. Now my computer tells me I have windows which is not authentic and my screen is black. What should I do?
On laptops from Dell, you find the product key in the compartment to batteries.
Click Start, right click computer
Click on properties
Scroll down to the Windows Activation
Click on the link change product key
Enter the product key located on the COA sticker at the bottom of the laptop and click next to activate via the Internet.

Hi all
I have a serious problem I tried to solve a few months now, but without success.
I have this external hard drive I use to backup my data. These a few months ago, I plugged on my mother's computer to transfer files. His computer has the Windows 8.1 operating system, so it has installed in it and somehow, without giving me permission to BitLocker (and totally, I swear that I have not: D), it must have encrypted my external hard drive. When I then tried to connect it to my computer which runs on Windows 7 Home Premium, it just said that the drive is encrypted and cannot be opened. It does give me an option to enter the password or something like that. It will not only open.
So, I have the recovery password that I got from my mother's laptop so I can open the external drive into any computer on which BitLocker is installed. But I can't get it running on my computer, which is the one that I need to run it on, of course...
I checked and analyzed all the forums of discussion and forums and methods for disabling BitLocker encryption on a drive. They all have this method super-easy show where you just have to connect the player to a computer on which BitLocker, and you plug in, you should see an option "disable Bitlocker", after a right click on the device, on the upper left as you have the device open, or via the control panel. I tried to do it on 3 different computers with BitLockers, and none of them gave me such an option. I could only control encryption of the computer itself, but not to any external devices. I'm not kidding, it's just not there. Never.
I also downloaded some freeware that said they could decipher the reader for you if you have the password, but none of them worked. So please, please, if you have any suggestions, ways I could solve this problem and get the external hard drive to be able to if run on my computer even once, I would be so grateful :)
Thanks guys,.
Katarina
I could only control encryption of the computer itself, but not to any external devices.
I just plugged an encrypted by BitLocker on a Windows 7 Starter machine flash disk and quickly got the prompt to enter the password. Given that this is not consistent with your own observations, I suspect that one of two things:
- Encryption has not been successfully completed. Maybe the disc has been disconnected during the encryption process.
- The disk is not encrypted but corrupt.
I bring the disc the machine to your mother, save its data to another medium, then remove the encryption and/or distribution & format the drive.

Network share does not not in Windows 7 Home premium
Hello friends,
I have a problem with windows 7 Home premium, whenever I try to connect any other OS such as windows 2003/XP windows 7 Edition serevr Home premium, then get a pormpt put network credientials, so after the same personal again he asks seems to be not to accept.
ex: trying to connect as \\Server-A\ABCfolder can get a command prompt but when never try the DRC cross, I checked and checked the sharing network affecting all seems fine.
Here I would like to be updated as WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM IS ON WORKGROUP AND I TRY to CONNECT THE MAHCINE WHO BELONG to THE DOMAIN.
ANY SUGGESTIONS?
Thanks for your answers... The server is a stand-alone in the same working group with other computers. In any case it seems to be a problem of windows 7 home since an ultimate and professional edition to connect correctly to win 2000 share using the same user and password that I use with win7 home ed. I guess that the pc windows 7 does not send credentials appropriate to the remote pc.
The solution: editing the registry for the level of authentication LAN manager (in home edition, it can be configured through the registry)
How to do:
1. Open Registry Editor (Start search - regedit)
4: Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
3. create a new DWORD value with the following properties: NAME: LmCompatibilityLevel
VALUE: 1

Not genuine Windows 7 Home Premium
Separated from this thread.
I have the same problem. My BIOS date is 2008. Yet, I received all of the updates until I went to 10. Last modification on 12/15/2015. In other words, it was valid until then. !!! Prior to level and even qualified to go to 10. I'm assuming that when I upgraded, it was validated by 10. Why should I have to pay 109.00 to obtain another copy of windows 7 Home premium.
I'm running a thinkpad IBM T61
I suggest that you run the diagnostic tool Microsoft Genuine Advantage in normal mode and copy and paste the results into a response for further analysis:

Win 7 product key and install help from disk
I have a win 7 Home license sticker and product key that gave me because their laptop was broken I'm aloud to use it on my laptop?
They don't give me the installation of Win 7 Home dvd disc so is it legal to download and use a copy of the disc? I found this forum, someone said this, here is the link:
OK that's all, thank you. Shaun.
No, you can not transfer this license to another computer, because it is an OEM license.
The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
-OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
-OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
-OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
-OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

Paused long and sleep don't work on Windows 7 Home Premium
A few weeks ago the Hibernate and sleep functions stopped working on my SONY VAIO laptop. By that I mean, I can click on functions and it seems to work fine, BUT a minute later he wakes up. I disabled hibernates and then helped him, but this does not solve the problem. Then one week there is exactly the same thing started to happen on my Lenovo desktop all-in-one computer.
I never had this problem on any of my computer before, is more strange would happen on two computers in a few weeks apart. It makes me think that a recent Windows Update may have caused the problem.
Yet once, put in hibernation until sleep only works for a minute, and then he wakes up again. I am convinced that it is NOT caused by a former pilot or a device that wakes the computer since we are talking about two distinct and unique computers that do not share anything other than a printer.
Thoughts or ideas to solve this problem is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
