• Installed Windows Vista Basic instead of Home Premium and now my product key will not work. What can I do?

  I have purchases product code for Vista Home Premium. I couldn't find the disk, so I installed Vista Basic. Microsoft does not authorize the premium code to record the "basic" program How can I get the two to work together on my machine? MS will not let me get the program of upgrading without registering to the basic version... and on, and it will.

  Hello

  Microsoft is correct; you need the correct product key for each specific edition of Vista.

  These information from Microsoft about replacing lost software should help you:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  Then you can install it properly.

  See you soon.

  PS If you use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.

  Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.

  As your boss has reinstalled the operating system, it should have the product key. Ask the product key and then activate the operating system.

• I had to reinstall Windows Xp Pro, the product key will not work.

  I have not changed any hardware or anything like that. I downloaded the updates of msupdates and my computer went the fritz would not do anything. I reinstalled windows xp pro from the restore disc that came with my computer. The product key is not accepted by windows to activate it. I need to know what to do. It's a Dell optiplex 2.8 gig Board and proc 2 gig of ram. Anyway when I bought.

  Hi, I am assuming that you are unable to activate your XP via internet, you can try the phone holder to turn on.

  You will be asked of the remote computer to give the support page for phone numbers.

  You will then receive a new set of numbers to activate your XP.

  If this does not work, you will be directed to a Microsoft employee. Explain your problem and if they are happy with your answer will give you an activation key.

• Updated to the Mavericks and now the MXF files will not work properly

  2008 mac Pro, just upgraded to the Mavericks. We use Canon XF 300 s that create MXF video files. When they are imported into first CC, different files have the first video on playback and I can not change the rest of the clips because they are all the first clip. The reading of the original files normally when you use VLC Player. I have the same question on all the machines of Mavericks, we have but not the machines that are still on Lion 10.7, the MXF files work fine. Is there a solution from Adobe, or is it a matter of Mavericks?

  You know what, I think I just solved her problem. Using the media browser, I was able to import a MXF file, because it combines all of the individual clips in a clip.

• "The product key does not work with this edition of Windows 7", but I have not changed anything

  Suddenly this week 7 Windows has stopped working and the error message said I might have a non-genuine copy, etc.   I checked the product key by using the Start/computer/properties menu. The product key was not the same as on my PC, so I tried to get the right version. Then I got the error message that you have entered the product key will not work with this edition of Windows 7, and I want to run Windows 7 set up or enter a professional product key.

  I saw that someone else had been advised to run MGADiag.exe so I've already did but am puzzled by the report.  And I'm worried, why me nice Acer desktop PC suddenly did that, when he had worked happily with normal updates etc.  The report shows a different product to the label of my PC key.

  Can someone help, please

  Thank you

  Andrea

  in the list, find the WAT update KB971033, and then uninstall it.

• I installed Vista in a Virtualbox VM and the product key does not work, how to fix this? I use the same product key supplied with the computer originally.

  I bought a Dell Precision T3400 of Dell Financial Services and it came with Vista Business installed.  I installed a new hard drive and installed Vista in a Virtualbox VM by using the recovery disk that came with the computer, and the product key does not work for activation.  I get a message that says I need to activate Windows, but he says that the product key is not valid.  How can I fix it?

  Thank you

  If you have reinstalled the OEM of Vista Business copy on the new hard drive, as Bill says you can't also use it in a virtual machine.

  You can only reuse your OEM of Vista professional copy if it is no longer used on the computer. Do you have what operating system installed on the new hard drive? It was an upgrade copy or complete the license?

  If you used a license to upgrade to another edition of Windows to replace your copy of company then Vista Business license is still in use (for upgrade) and you cannot reuse it in your virtual machine.

  However if you replaced Vista business with a copy of the full license of another edition then you are able to use the OEM copy in a virtual machine, but only on the same computer. You must use the product key from COA to the label on the computer. The product key is put in the copy OEM cannot find the SLIC table on the host motherboard. You must use the phone activation from within the virtual machine. Click on start in Vista Business and typing "slui 4. Do not meet the audio guests until it asks you if you want to speak to an agent. Explain that you have completely replaced the OEM copy with a copy of the full license of the new windows and now want to use the OEM copy in a virtual machine on the same computer. Agent will then give you the activation string. Remember that the virtual machine is not transferable to any other computer.
