• I can't activate my windows key after hardware change

  Due to the failure of the material, I had to Exchange my card motherboard and CPU.  Now, I can't get my windows key 7 to activate.  When I try to activate online I get error 0x80072efe code.  When I try the phone option automated I get the error code 0 x 0000048.  I tried phone support, but does not include support staff.

  I'd love to.  But no country option and no phone number are displayed. Just error 0 x 0000048, a non-specific error code. I drag the menu asking countries, but no option is available.

  Your report MGADiag indicates that Windows spotted the hardware changes - and he will need to phone Activation.
   
  If you let us know where you are, we can look at the number for you :)
  (although if you can not see the codes, it is possible will do much good--but the operator may be able to help)

• Request an activation code for Windows due to hardware changes, but nothing has changed. What is going on?

  My computer is request an activation code for Windows due to hardware changes but nothing has changed.  What is going on?  This morning firefox did not and went into the Task Manager to see which processes were underway, then he closed the Explorer.  I think I clicked on it by mistake.  Then turn on now that I get this message.

  Go ahead and try to activate it? (copy is authentic, came on the computer already installed)

  Hi JaneMcDonald,

  Yes, you can go ahead and activate Windows XP, as it could be a possibility that the software license file may have been changed due to some changes.

• Pavilion x 2: Windows product key Validation after hardware change (new SSD)

  I have a Pavilion laptop x 2 with a 64 GB SSD.  It came with Windows 8.1 but he now works Windows 10 - of course.  I decided to upgrade the 256 GB SSD.  I bought the appropriate module (a Sandisk).  I recently contacted Windows support to inquire about the procedure to validate the OS once I did the material exchange.  I wasn't sure how it would work since my x 2 Pavilion has incorporated into BIOS product key.  Microsoft told me that because I was going to do a hardware change I would need a new product key (in other words my laptop current product key would be 'blocked').  I was able to recover the product key of my Pavilion x 2 (OEM and installed keys - what is the difference?).

  Does anyone have experience in this field?  Once I have replace the SSD and perform a clean install Windows 10, will be the key to product embedded BIOS validate operating system or it will reject?  Since I'm NOT buying a HP SSD (with preloaded operating system) and that my x 2 Pavilion is now long out of warranty?  I really have to pay over a hundred dollars for a new Windows operating system license?

  Thanks in advance for any advice/help.

  Francis

  Parameters indicate that I have a digital right so with a bit of luck when I change the SSD and install Windows 10, the machine must validate without a qualm.  I tried to see if I could link my Validation of my Microsoft account but I did not have this option on my settings (although in the past when I re-install Windows 10, link validation of my Microsoft account operating system so I guess it works.)  Also, I guess I have the anniversary edition from my machine updated automatically.

  If all else fails, I'll see how it goes after the SSD upgrade and if I have to deal with Microsoft.  I also agree with you that change the SSD (essentially the ' drive') is NOT a significant change in equipment and shall not impose a new product key, but then, nothing surprises me more.

  Your tips were helpful and I thank you.

• Uninstalled Windows 10 after hardware problems. After using the option to uninstall using Windows 7 Adobe Reader has disappeared and I can't install it.

  I have upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and after a few hours I decided that I didn't like it particularly because of hardware problems. When I went back to using Windows 7 I realized that I had Adobe Acrobat reader and that I could only open PDF in my browser. In addition to this, I can not re - install Adobe Reader. I get the message below:

  The feature you are trying to use is on an unavailable network resource

  Click OK to try again or enter a different path to the folder containing the installation package 'AcroRead.msi' in the box below.

  By clicking OK, does nothing. I get the same error message.

  Does anyone else have this problem? All solutions on how to get the acrobat reader?

• Cannot activate Windows XP after motherboard change

  I had to adapt to a new motherboard and cpu after the cpu has failed and a 'repair installation XP', now when I click on 'Yes' to activate the wallpaper is displayed but no activation screen. That leaves us stuck.
  Is my disk XP home SP2, but we had downloaded SP3.

  When to enable Windows WPA performs a check of 10 points as follows.

  The WPA system checks ten categories of equipment:

  1. Display adapter
  2. SCSI adapter
  3. Adapter IDE (actually the motherboard)
  4. Adapter network (NIC) and its MAC address
  5. Range of amount of RAM (0 to 64 MB, 64-128 MB, etc)
  6. Type of processor
  7. Processor serial number
  8. Hard drive device
  9. (VSN) hard drive Volume serial number
  10. CD-ROM / CD - RW / DVD-ROM

  If WPA determines that a number of components do not match original checkpoint (if Windows was initially activated) it will require you to call Microsoft for activation. You will receive a 42-digit type. This will reactivate your copy of Windows.

  To start the Product Activation Wizard:

  1. Click Start.
  2. Click on all programs, then Accessories.
  3. Click on System Tools.
  4. Click on Activate Windows.

  In the Product Activation Wizard, follow these steps:

  1. Click use the telephone system automated to activate.
  2. Click on the dropdown menu, select the nearest location to you and then click Next.
  3. The Microsoft Product Activation Center telephone number is displayed at the top of the window.

• Impossible to activate after hardware change

  I had CHANGED (UPGRADED) my motherboard and re-LOAD Vista Premium of Nome and the activation time was THREE days. During this time, I had tried to contact numbers phone several times. Just like the days Saturday and Sunday I was UNABLE to connect and now the last day is over; So WHAT I do NOW without reload the new OS.

  Try a manual activation.

  To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter.  Enter your country and press Next.  You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below.  Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being.  Have your handy product code because it will be asked.  Explain the situation, but it's the same PC and only installed on this PC.  They should give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Windows 8 crashes when running 'find the hardware changes' in the Device Manager, requiring forced stop

  I just installed Windows 8 Pro on a system that were running Windows 7 without problem.  After completing a clean Windows 8 Pro Setup program, I went from hollow driver installation, but found the package to install for my card its caused Windows 8 Pro drivers to lock up and become completely numb.  I had to force a shutdown by pressing the button for 4 seconds.

  Trying to solve the problem, I found that manually install the drivers through the device manager didn't cause any problems.  In addition, installation of the drivers available through Windows Update also worked without problem. However, these two methods fail to install parts of the pilot training included him.  Then I have to uninstall the device from the package of drivers again.  I uninstalled the sound card via Device Manager and selected "Delete the driver for this device."  When I followed this with a "Scan for hardware changes" again the list my sound card, I have found that Windows 8 Hung again.

  After trying other options with no resolution, I tried to reinstall fresh Windows 8.   To exclude a possible problem with Windows 8, I opened Device Manager, as soon as I could after installing Windows and ran "find the hardware changes.  New Windows 8 freezes.  I can't place blame on post installation any software or driver.  This seems to be a problem with Windows 8 itself.

  A final note, sometimes "find the hardware changes" will actually work, but most often it forces the system to hang.

  Does anyone else have this problem?  Can anyone provide assistance? (chart below for comparison)

  Processor: Core i7 3770 k

  Motherboard: MSI Z77A-GD80

  RAM: 16 GB

  Video: GeForce GTX 680

  Audio: Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D

  HARD drive: 1 x Corsair Force SSD 3

  RAID: 3 x 1 TB RAID 5

  It seems that I am victim of dynamic ticks.  Research on my question, I have found several discussions around the ' net for crashes/freezes random in Windows 8, but none of them appeared to agree to my problem.  However, they all had the same solutions.

  Run the following command in a command prompt to disable the dynamic ticks.

  bcdedit/set disabledynamictick Yes

  I thought that I have that would give a shot, and it worked.  I wrote this answer, I also found that there is a recent update of the BIOS for my motherboard which indicates "Support Windows8 feature."  With the new BIOS applied, I was able to turn dynamic ticks and have been broadcast since w/o freezes.  I also managed to install all my drivers.  Anyone else having this problem maybe try updating the motherboard BIOS, otherwise try the above command.

• My office has just done a repair XP after a hardware change and now all user accounts have disappeared and he asks the administrator password when connecting!

  We have a unique system of Windows XP that run the software of engineering for certain calculations. All other systems running Windows 7, but what a XP system because it's the only thing that our calculations software runs on.

  CPU of the XP computer died on us and we had to replace the card mother and CPU. After the change of equipment, following Microsoft's OWN guide on the running an XP repair, we ran the system repair and got all the way to the login screen (no blue screen not as before repair). However, none of the accounts are there and he asks an administrators password. The system has NEVER had a password to our knowledge, it was built in the House, and all simply by clicking on the Administrative login asks for a password.

  What can we do? We needed this fix before today and wait for the repair of the system to do. Is it possible to enter the system to run the software? We tried the SafeMode (all forms) and they all will ask a password after Windows loading.

  It's so frustrating.

  (PS I have been building computers for nearly 15 years and have never had this happen)

  Thanks for the quick response. I looked into the system with a "start-up" program All original profiles seem to still be there. I don't know how to make them appear well. Can you direct me or tell me, how to make profiles see the place?

  The biggest problem, outdoors is not be able to sign more, is that the engineering calculation software is locked to this PC. It can be installed anywhere else without having to pay for a VERY new (I think that thousands of dollars) expensive key or a new version of the software.

  :(

  Yes, it's a problem.
  I believe you can use a UBCD4Win CD or Hiren Boot CD to locate and right click on the files you want to change. And then, if you properly in your repair facility, you change the attributes after you're done.
  Some guides are better than others. And here's one that I like:

  If necessary, hire a PC Tech. It's much cheaper than buying a license that is thousands of dollars!

• Hardware changes not detected using a flash drive, the missing, system restore points tried every fix that MS can offer in Windows 7

  All of a sudden, I have several problems with my computer.  I can't not computer to recognize a flash drive.  Printer works in the same usb port.  I used Device Manager, checked the drivers, made every difficulty that MS has to offer, each difficulty that Dell can offer, but the problem remains.  I don't feel uncomfortable so I don't have to play with the registry.  I uninstalled the drivers and rebooted.  The only changes that I did before this happened was to uninstall and reinstall I-tunes.  The flash drive, I use would be defective?  When I went to the system restore, my restore points have disappeared, that was the point where I uninstalled I-tunes.  I also noticed that when I tried to detect problems with the resolution of the problems of hardware and devices, it says "material changes may not have been detected.  In detail, it also shows "there is no configured windows in a way never install driver - edition".  WHAT?  I know that windows IS configured to automatically install.  (Deep breath)

  Very well.  So I am at a loss.  Any suggestions?  Thank you very much for your time and your attention...
