But the issue I'm having is with virtual PC, however, I use the license that came when I bought it and is not wanting to turn on, it keeps Gush a BS error, my Windows XP is activated, but my Windows 7 does not. He always tells me that "the product key you entered cannot be used to activate Windows on this computer."

  If your license of Windows 7 is an upgrade:

  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.

  original title: activating xp

  If your copy of Windows is preinstalled on a computer, it's an OEM copy - and the license CANNOT be transferred to another computer.

  Nobody don't keep records of this license has been actviated by which - above all, Microsoft. Data for registration and Activation are stored on separate servers and correlate precisely for this reason.

  Each license of the retail XP DO can be installed that on one machine at a time - the OEM licenses are not transferable between machines.

• Reinstalling Windows Vista, but do not have the product key. How can I find?

  Install Vista on two machines
  OK, so one of my friends has Ubunto Linux installed on their system and they want Windows Vista back. I said I would do and use my disks of Vista OS (16 in total).

  Now, the fun is that it doesn't have the product key to its original copy of Vista so how I get it back?

  It had Vista installed on it before Linux, however based on a virus that Vista should be completely removed and Linux has been installed as an operating system that is temporary until we find Vista once again, since I'm the one with the OS disk, then we re-install it.

  So I'll be able to have my copy of Vista on two different computers?

  ALSO: Vista came with the computer when he brought it but no recovery disk (as they did with XP) has been provided.

  Hello

  1 No. you cannot use your product key on his computer and your computer: Installation is permitted with a license.

  And if yours is preinstalled (OEM license), you could not even give it Vista and consider your computer off.

  2. you can't find the product key for the operating systems pre-installed when the product key on the sticker is missing or lost; read this Information:

  The way around this is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send recovery discs to reinstall the operating system properly. They should send records for a small fee.

  While they are in contact with the Manufaxcturer of the computer also ask them if there is a way to reinstall the operating system on a recovery partition on the hard drive of your laptop, allowing them to save money.

  Either of these methods of recovery normally does not imply that you have to insert a product key as factory Setup key is automatically used to activate this process.

• How can I get the product key when missing / or fainted at a group of letters and numbers on the Microsoft product labels?

  I am able to see some numbers and letters of a product on the Microsoft label key I bought and you must activate the product. Does anyone know how to find the product key otherwise?

  Your response is much appreciated!

  Hello

  If vista is preinstalled (Dell, HP, etc.), this should help you:

  In these Forums, it is often recommended to use a magnifying glass and a flashlight to see if you can read the numbers of the product key on the label.

  Also that, read also:

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks and to reinstall the operating system.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.

  See you soon.

  Hey Bjarnikr

  If you have already reinstalled vista and you don't know the product key we can not help you

  If you had contacted these forums before you reinstalled vista we helped you with key finder programs

  but as this is a new installation of vista not activated we cannot help you find the product key

  If it is preinstalled, I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of your computer and ask them about recovery disks

  normally, they do not require you to select a product key when you use them to reinstall vista

  you don't say how you reinstalled vista

  and a vista license = a vista installation

  and the oem licenses cannot be transferred to another machine

  the retail license can be transferred, but that only one installation per license is allowed at any time

  You must acquire the recovery discs right from the manufacturer - if you're lucky, your office don't reinstall it properly and leave you with the recovery partition that would do the same job.

  Read your manual, on the recovery of the system and try the options there.

  If they do not work, you will need to contact it manufacturer and order a set of htem recovery disks.

• When I enter the product key for Windows XP on the side of the machine, he returned as invalid.

  HELP - refurbished nine questions with Microsoft XP computer

  I recently bought a computer refurbished with microsoft XP.  Two things have happened: when I first started it he asked the product key number that was on the side (certificate refurbished), when I did, received an error message saying that the code was not valid.  Restarted and received two error messages, on a CMOS and a change of configuration - which I did not.  I can't use Configuration F1.  It will not work.  What I'm doing!

  Call the place you bought the computer from.

• When entering the product key for Windows XP I receiver a mistake: the product id you entered is not valid.

  my old hard drive crashed completely gone I am trying to reinstall windows xp on the new drive same computer I have the same his invalid product key (I do not have the office yet) what should I do? is there a number I can call, and that does not cost $ 50 just for support? I heard there were ways to reset the code to make it work on the good hard drive and not on the bad?

  If by saying "This is the code on my last hard drive" you mean that you used a utility such as Magical Jellybean Keyfinder to read the key on your old hard drive and you use now that the key... it's the wrong key.  It is key that the manufacturer used to all the machines it does.  You must use the key that is located on the sticker on the box.

  To avoid even guess, please provide the following information:

  • The brand and model of your computer
  • The version of Windows that was originally installed on the computer
  • Where you got the CD that you are using and what's printed on it
  • When you got the product key you use (not posting the key itself)

• When I type in the product key it still telling me it, s a wrong number - and this is the right number as shown on back of laptop

  Windows XP Professional for refurbished PC was pre-installed and there is a special licence for PC that have been
  refurbished. When I try to type in the product key as indicated on the back of the laptop, it keeps telling me that it is
  incorrect answer.

  Why you try to type in a product key Windows XP If Windows XP was preinstalled on the computer?  Pre-installed Windows operating systems almost always have the product key installed by the original installer.
