• Pick up the activation of Windows 8 with a crashed disk code

  I checked the other posts, but I can not find this question.  My friend has a 2000 HP (no other digits or numbers anywhere.)  His car crashed and burned.  It will not work in any computer or my docking station.  He clicks just for a while stops and then starts upward.  Needles to say, I can't start so the activation code recovery programs are not an option.

  I bought a new drive to it and installed it and then I managed to get a Dell OEM Windows 8 drive but of course I can't get anywhere without the activation code.  I tried to read the code bar on the keyboard, but it does not recognize my phone.  Is it possible to get the activation code for this computer?  I haven't even looked under the battery, but there is no code anywhere.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  You can usually order recovery of each model support page support (U.S. / CA) in software drivers/list - but you need more HP 2000 to find the right page. There should be a product number, serial number printed somewhere - usually under the battery, etc. but you indicated that nothing is there? Check in the BIOS, on the first page, for product & serial number.

  Once you have the info, use the button at the top of this page titled 'Support', then click on "Download drivers" in the menu. Enter your product number. After you enter the PN, click "Go". On the next page, use the drop-down menu to select your operating system, click Next. A list will populate with the drivers/software. Scroll down the list to check the possibility of order recovery media.

  Hey Hashiriya Allan

   
  Microsoft licenses part of it is that a single license is for a single installation
  You can not have vista installed on two laptops using the same product key
  and if vista was preinstalled on your old laptop this is an oem license and cannot be transferred to another machine

  Honestly, it looks that your system needs a new reinstall of Windows 7. It should reinstall applications such as Microsoft Office and drivers for devices such as your scanner, printer. If you wish not to do this, follow these steps:

  Check your hard drive for errors:

  Click Start

  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD

  Click on "Run as Administrator"

  At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

  then

  
  Click Start
  Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
  Click on "Run as Administrator"
  At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow
  This will check for any breach of integrity

  Restart your system

  Also to perform a clean boot and see if things improve:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  You should also check to see if you have installed any rogue programs:

  Click Start, type: programs and features

  Press enter

  See the list and uninstall programs, you are sure that you may not be installed.

• Problems with the activation of Windows XP 2002

  Help!

  Is there someone out there who can help me solve this problem?

  I have a PC with Windows XP Professional 2002, Service Pack 2, control my LC - MS instrument that uses the MS Xcalibur software.  Four weeks ago, I had a PC crash and re installed Windows XP by using the CD of Installation Re.  On Thursday last week, he came a message that Windows must be enabled.  I tried by phone, but my install ID has not been accepted.  This PC came with Win XP is already installed.  I find it very strange that it should be a problem to activate it once more!

  Can someone please help me solve this problem?

  It is very important to me, because the PC is to control the instrument SM - which is the work horse in my business.

  It is the key that is most important.

  In your current installation, click Start

  Right click on my computer

  Select Properties.

  Look at the display product ID

  If the second group is - OEM character - then it is an OEM license and key, which can not be moved.

  just about anything else can be moved.

• Problems with the Activation of Windows 7 Professional

  Hello, for a long time, my windows was genuine, but then I ran SpyHunter 4 to end a virus in my computer. But then I had to reset the computer, and then, the windows became a pirate and showing 7601 compilation and I started getting messages that I might be victim of falsification of software. Then, I clicked on the link to activate the window again. And then, I downloaded the WindowsActivationUpdate.exe, and when it ended, I have zero crashed my computer and I received this message, but the windows was always not authentic. Then I went to microsoft.com/genuine and tried to launch the legitcheck.hta, it starts and says that the validation of the window is current and recommended that I do not have to navigate beyond this page. But then, after awhile, it gets with and shows the following script errors:

  Line 14

  Character 102675

  Line 1

  Character 15126

• Breakdown of the network on Windows 7 laptops

  We know some od behaviors of some of our laptops to Windows 7. When they are connected to our LAN via the wired adapter (this doesn't happen on wireless adapters) they lose network connectivity after about 5-10 minutes of use same light. At first, we thought it was down to a particular model of NIC, but since we had this with a completely separate network card makeup. Windows Firewall is disabled, and what happens if the machine is a member of the domain or not. Also, this does not affect Windows 7 desktop machines, only laptops.

  Richard,

  If you are on a corporate network, you should post your question in the forums of Windows 7 TechNet networks:

• Get the popup to the activation of Windows 7 after new installation

  I used my actual activation key after a new installation (not an upgrade) of W7 on full CD/DVD with sticker. It seemed to work but I keep getting harassed to activate because the key is supposed to be invalid. Experiment with the options I tried to "Buy a new key online." which took me to a site Web of MS page that CITES "because it is installed on your Windows PC is authentic", etc. Something is wrong, but what?

• ProBook 4540S: it requires the activation of Windows! Why?

  He bought a laptop with Windows 8 Professional on board.
  The Downgrade, I activated Windows 7 Pro.
  Ability to do some time ago was put in a certified HP laptop repair center.
  On his return from repair - I changed the video card chip, Windows unexpectedly announced the absence of authentication and could not be activated with the current key.
  To demolish all the software installed on your computer and reinstall again - not a solution: some programs may not be reset.
  We need how to activate the operating system under the current circumstances.
  How to do?

  Is that Microsoft is committed to support OEM versions? OEM support is always on the manufacturer. Read the license agreement.
  The problem has been resolved through the back door: the reference to a found authorized service center replace the card mother of GPU in repairing what I said in the first post.

  After speaking with the support of the service center, it was decided that the firmware of the serial number of the motherboard and faulty hardware key. Exactly how that will happen - I don't like. What is important, the 'HP' approved centre acknowledged his error and eliminate it.
