Product key valid not recognized during installation.
How to approach with a clean install of Windows 7 Professional on my laptop after a disk failure hard and replacement when the software tells me that the product key is not valid? It's the same one I used as the program was purchased online directly from Microsoft? The product key has been verified since the original email from Microsoft that have accompanied the purchase online. The product key entry has been tried several times and verified as having been entered correctly. However, the problem remains.
Thank you

I hope that I have ave explained it well enough for someone to solve these issues. Dale a lot thanks
The question of activation is because you cannot use a Dell OEM of Windows version to activate on a Sony.
The questions ImageSensor and mass storage controller are likely due to the fact that the Dell installation media is not the device driver appropriate for your Sony computer motherboard.

Hello
Data Modeler is a foreign key constraints do not recognize when synchronizing data with the model dictionary, although the foreign key is there (in the database that a data dictionary is read). I can't find any criterion when a foreign key is not recognized by the Data Modeler. Are there limits to the length of the attribute, or the number of columns in a foreign key, or other limitations which may lead to this behavior not to recognize a fk by Data Modeler? I have columns more than 32 characters. I compared with the fk is recognized by DM, but I can't find anything that indicates why it is not recognized.
I wonder if someone also has constraints of foreign keys that are not recognized in the comparison of data bases and model?
Thank you

After several attempts of downloaded installation windows 8, I ended up with a useless and made desktop resettlement using my windows disc 7. Now, the product key for my windows 7 is recognized as a key to upgrade only and does not have to satisfy to MPA. Where is my satisfaction? I have 30 days to resolve. Either I need a key for my 7, or a facility for my 8. Everything on my end, that I could find online tried. I think this is a Microsoft problem and the solution must come from them.
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.

LaserJet Pro P1102w installation problems - USB not recognized during installation
Struggling to configure the P1102w - using the installation DVD that accompanies it, I go through the steps. When I get to ' turn on the printer, connect the USB cable to the computer ' the printer is not recognized. Is not dismiss it, he just can't get it - it is with Windows 8.1.
Tried it on another laptop running Windows 7 - same problem. The installer sat on the market "in waiting to connect to the printer via the USB port. When you connect, Windows recognizes a USB device and tried to install the device - came with an error that could not be recognized and need to contact the manufacturer for the installation files.
Update Windows, computer rebooted several times, deleted the HP installation files and tried with drivers downloaded from HP website - same problem.
Any ideas?
I had the same problem when working on a clients computer.
(1) it has been infected by viruses, so we had to make a Virus removal on his computer.
So you want to make sure that your computer is virus-free
(2) in most Windows 8 HP computers in particular, drivers automatically installs on the computer.
Check your device manager and click on printers. It will show what is connected.
On my computer it shows printers >
HP P1102W
I had to uninstall it, to install the software. Once I did that the computer was able to recognize the USB cable.

HP LaserJet P1102: USB not recognized during installation of HP LaserJet P1102
I have a Sony Vaio VPCEH computer laptop with Windows 7 and when I run the disk I got with the printer on my laptop, that the installation procedure works in what concerns the section "Install printer Software". When you are prompted to turn on the printer and connect the cable USB to the laptop it says 'USB not recognized '. I tried all 4 slots USB into my laptop but the USB still appears as an unknown device with an exclamation point in a yellow triangle. I searched internet solutions and tried to uninstall the unknown device in Device Manager and restart the installation with the disc, I also tried clicking on the unknown device driver software update but it says the software driver is up to date and still, it shows as an unknown device and is not recognized. I also tried to uninstall the HP software from the disc on my laptop and that reinstall but nothing has worked. I felt for over 2 weeks now and have not been able to use it because of this problem and I really need for University, so I would be very happy if someone could please give me a solution to this problem
Hi @Janemaguire,
Have you tried another USB cable?
Because the printer is not detected on the Mac, it may be the USB port of the printer.
What happened when you tried to install the printer on Mac?

HARD drive is not recognized during installation of Windows XP on Qosmio F30 - 140
Dear alls,
I'm trying to install winxp on my Qosmio F30-140, but when I boot from the CD and after Setup starts, it shows me a massage like this:
"windows has not found any HARD drive. Please make sure that you have an and it's probably work and connection very well... blah blah blah... »What should I do to install my OS?
Thank you
Hello
your machine has a RAID controller, so before installing windows, you must install the RAID controller before. This occurs after you´ve began installing XP. Then a message on the bottom of the screen will appear that tells you that you must press F6 if you install HARD drive controllers (or something that way).
You need to install the RAID driver from a USB floppy drive, which can be downloaded here:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jspAfter you have installed the driver for your drive HARD will be displayed, and you would be able to install XP.
