  If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7 Home Premium, you should have a recovery if partition:

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

  For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

  Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

  ------------------------

  If the recovery partition is damaged or does not, you can then use the downloaded Home Premium as an alternative.

  Hello

  You don't tell us the circumstances in which she asks for the PK.

  Pre-installed with Windows 8/8.1 the product key on the operating systems (HP, Acer, etc.) is integrated in the motherboard BIOS, so that the problem of sticker joint record lost or worn out is no more.

  If you reinstall it must pick up the product key and activate the system automatically.

• Use the product key OEM with Windows Vista fresh install

  Hello. I got my Acer Aspire 5517 laptop for my birthday a few years ago (with Vista pre-installed). A genuine OEM product key is located at the bottom of the laptop. How can I use it with a new installation? Or can I somehow get an ISO or CD OEM Microsoft's file, or download it online somehow? Please don't tell me to upgrade to Windows 7, as I don't have hundreds of dollars to spend right now. Thank you!

  Reinstall XP Pro

  Get "the product ID you entered is invalid. Please try again. "I'm in the product key from the sticker on top. Why do I get this error msg?

  Double check you type the product key exactly as written on the license. A few letters and numbers look like.

  For more information, see Microsoft...

  You receive an error message after you enter the product key when you try to install Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310637

  Note: The product key you use must be used with the correct disk version. You must use the disc that came with your license.

  For example, if you have an OEM license, then this license can be used only with a Pro XP OEM disc. OEM licenses are licenses that come with your computer, usually the product key is stuck on the side or at the top of the computer, or a laptop.

  If you have a retail license, you must have a retail XP Pro Version. Retail licenses are FPP (full packaged product) and often have the license on a yellow or orange sticker.

  If you have an enterprise license (Volume License), you must have a Corporate Version of the XP Po. These are usually only available for large networks.

  The license sticker will be a version, it is an example for an OEM version: X 11-37156

  

  Make a note of your version and find the disk corresponding to this version.

  A product key can be activated a limited number of times, if your product key has been activated before it can be reactivated as long as it is to be reinstalled on the same machine. Reactivation must be made by phone, if not, you need to change the product key.

  My wife has an XP laptop that needs a reconstruction (it is sloooow) and the original recovery CD corrupted - will be a work of standard CD - with its original product key?

• Cannot install clean Windows 8.1 get pick up the product key from the BIOS

  I have Acer S3-391 with a pre-installed 8 Win. First, I thought that I would like to downgrade to Win 7 Pro as I am used to Win 7. So, I

  remove the recovery partition from Acer Windows 8 on my hard drive and installed Win 7 Pro (with my own product key) on this subject. Also, I've updated to version 2.17 UEFI BIOS.

  Now I decided to reinstall Win 8 on my laptop, but I am running into a problem:

  As I deleted the original recovery partition which included all the bloatware is it came with, I use a Windows 8.1 cleaning ISO image trasnferred a FAT32 formatted USB flash drive. It's actually an ISO Windows 8.1 Professional, but I added the file 'ei.cfg' "basic" settings and "OEM" inside. So he installed a clean Windows 8.1 with UEFI BIOS setting, but it will not pick up a product key from the UEFI BIOS. It assigns a generic key and I can't activate it with Microsoft.

  Any suggestions to make it meet on the embeded BIOS product key without ordering a recovery DVD set for $45 at Acer?

  Thank you.

  You're right, it comes with 8.0 OEM. Last night, I found Win 8.0 ISO, modified with the folder $ $OEM and activated!

• How do you get the product key from a pre installed Windows verion

  I bought a computer comes with windows 8 pro 64-bit pre-installed already.

  Where can I find the product key for this.  It is not revenue anywhere.

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

• How to save the key wind8 in line/how to protect the product key from a misuse?

  I've recently updated for win8 using my cousins and his email address credit card. Now, my windows 8 is activated, but since he had added his e-mail address in the upgrade process that he got a copy of the original receipt with the product key. Although I totally trust in him that he will not be abused with her, but I was just curious as to what all can do with product key he has.

  Can it download windows 8 and install it using the same key. (Since mine is already on I don't know how this happens).

  Otherwise please put some light
  (1) by what all means the product key may be diverted and
  (2) in what way all I can prevent these abuses and
  (3) is it possible to record the product key online with my name and email address.

  It can download and install it using your product key, but it would not be able to activate it because it is already activated on your computer.
  Otherwise please put some light
  (1) by what all means the product key may be diverted and

  Do not tell anyone, you do not trust. Because your counsin bought for you, you just going to have to trust him as the only person who knows. Of course, if its used elsewhere, know you who to contact. :)

  (2) in what way all I can prevent these abuses and

  Not to reveal the key to product to anyone or allow anyone to go on your computer and run the retreival product key tools.

  (3) is it possible to record the product key online with my name and email address.

  Product activation is about as long as it goes and its pretty of course because it captures the unique identity of your material that prevents it to be used elsewhere.
