• Download windows 7 Professional prepared have the product key

  I brought laptopn, three months after warinty the thing is dead. have ity upward and in course of execution but slow and wrrors a lot. I have the sticker wibdows 7 with product / license key on it. I don't have a disk when I got the laptopn, which is a samsung R519. Can download a copy of windows 7 Professional, then use my key, where can download l?

  If the laptop is preinstalled with Windows 7 Professional, it means that it is an OEM license. OEM licenses are not transferable, and they are related to the first computer they are installed.

  If it is a license purchased in a retail store, it is transferable to another computer. Retail licenses include documentation, certificate of authentification and relocation of media, which you should have if you want to transfer to another computer. You don't seem to have these things, which make it impossible to transfer the license to another computer.

  If this is a Windows 7 Professional upgrade license, you transfer the computer must already have a preinstalled Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 license.

  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.

  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.

  If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

• I would like to know how to re - install windows on a laptop with the product key on the back of the laptop.

  install windows with the product key

  someone I gifted an old laptop with a lot of things about what I don't want and stuff I want is missing. I would like to know how to re - install windows on the laptop with the product key on the back of my laptop.

  or, even better, if someone could find me a way to get a disk to restore to factory without purchasing information, which would be awsome.

  I thank you for your time and have a good day.

  If the laptop is one of the well known brands, he may well have a restore partition.  If you do not have a manual to the user of this computer, then go to the manufacturers website and look for the documentation.  At the very least, you should be able to find information about how to restore the laptop from the recovery partition.

  If the restore partition has been decimated, the manufacturer may still have available for a nominal cost of installation diskettes.

• Re-install Windows 8, it will choose the product key?

  OT: Re-install Windows 8.

  My computer broke down and all restore points do not work.

  I have a Windows 8 OS install disc, but I don't know my registration key activation/for Windows 8 OS came with the computer.

  If I start a new installation on the laptop, he automatically picks up the key from the bios, or what I have to enter manually in?

  If I don't have to enter, someone know how I can find it using the command line or in the registry?

  Thank you!

  If you use your drive and it came with the computer, it is automatically activated when you reinstall. If the disc is not a detail, it will not activate and in this case, you will need to use either the recovery Partition - if your computer comes with one - or contact your computer manufacturer's technical support and ask them to send you a full set of Recovery DVD. They usually charge a small fee for these for help to cover their costs (under US $20.00 for my HP).  Hope this helps and if you need any additional aid station and we will be happy to help you.

• Have Windows 7 COA but not the product key

  I bought Windows 7 Professional during a promotion that has Microsoft for students in the fall of 2009.  I ordered a backup for Windows 7 disk, the certificate of authenticity, but not the product key.  The key has been sent by e-mail, but is now over.  When I try to look it up on the site of Microsofts Digital River, most of the links related to Windows 7 is broken.  Is there anyway that I can get my product key recovered or replaced if I have the certificate of authenticity located on the packaging of the backup drive?
