• Bypass UEFI provided the product key to install Windows 8?

  Just bought an HP computer brand new.

  Unlike my old systems, it is running a UEFI (BIOS) firmware and HP integrated the product keys for Windows 8 BASIC in the firmware somehow.   The problem installing my authentic copy retail of Windows 8 Professional.    I want to talk about a new installation DVD, after formatting and partitioning the drive (can't stand all this HP bloatware/test stuff).

  The DVD mode of UEFI boot work, but when it gets to the part of the facility where he asks my product key - windows install grab the keys off the coast of the motherboard and told me that they do not match.    I'm never gave the possibility to use the key that came with my copy of windows 8 pro.

  How to install Windows 8 Pro, so the installer will allow me to enter my product key?

  In the bios, there are options to disable secure boot, enable and disable the keys.   None of them running.   There is even an option in the bios by default to 'keys provided by the user.   but who doesn't either.

  Help!

  Found a working solution... just in case someone else runs into an OEM computer that has built-in product keys it UEFI firmware.

  The solution was very simple and easy to perform.    First you'll need an original copy of your Professional 8 Windows DVD or an ISO of it.    You will also need an empty key USB 4 GB or more.

  By following the steps on this site - perform the format of the USB key:

  http://www.Blogsolute.com/create-Windows-8-USB-bootable-pendrive-UEFI-boot/25988/

  Then create a file named PID.txt (as described below).

  http://www.Blogsolute.com/Windows-8-clean-installation-product-key-do-not-match/25990/

  After many hours of banging my head against the UEFI firmware, PID.txt solution works very well.   When windows setup find PID.txt, she uses this product code and ignores the one integrated in the firmware of computers.

  Don't forget to complete the formatting of the USB for UEFI, its necessary for the needs of secure boot of many new computers.    You can try booting in legacy mode, but it wouldn't work on my computer.

  See you soon.

  Appears that Microsoft has changed the terms of the license with Windows 8. See the next root thread: http://superuser.com/questions/517142/running-windows-8-in-a-vm-can-i-use-the-copy-that-came-with-my-laptop

  In addition, a rather good article exceeding the various changes in the terms of the license of the new Windows 8: http://www.zdnet.com/how-the-new-windows-8-license-terms-affect-you_p2-7000003028/

  They consider now a physical PC and a virtual machine to be * separated * computers. Since the preinstalled Windows 8 use an OEM license, this license cannot be moved between the "computers".

  For anyone interested in doing something similar (mobile Windows 8 in a virtual machine), you must purchase an additional license. Upgrade license or a System Builder should work.

  The product key is will not change when you updated to Windows 8.1, but it is used to activate the system operation cannot be used to buy additional upgrades such as Windows Media Center etc - this requires you to first purchase the upgrade key appropriate for the additional component, you need.

When I got my hands on the machine, windows was still not enabled surprisingly. I called the customer service dell Sunday, who confirmed that it was purchased in the Gulf and it is pre-installed windows machine 8. The Executive of the customer asked me to call Monday for anywhere between 09:00 and 18:00 to get the product key.  When I asked my friend about activation, it was completely dropped on activation or reinstallation of windows 8 on top of pre-installed windows 8 OS. I guess he bought the machine pre installed and active windows 8, but somehow, through someone, windows has been reinstalled and the resettlement process could not brought the product key from the BIOS.

  Now, as I had fun at hand, because it is Sunday, I searched a few tools retrieve the product key from the BIOS, and I was finally able to get their hands on the product key of my machine, but has not managed to activate my windows using command prompt (using slmgr slui.exe) and user interface.

• Can't use the product key to activate Windows 8

  Original title :-2147023450

  Because my new phone Samsung (which has been activated online) does not have a product key Windows 8 I download Belarc, which shows the product key.

  I used this product to update key.  Microsoft has refused to acknowledge this product key.

  This key cannot be used to activate Windows 8. In addition, your new laptop Samsung if it came preloaded with Windows 8 should already be enabled. The only thing you had to do was to connect to the Internet and it would activate automatically.

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  If you have problems activating, try to do a Reset and attempt to activate again:

  You have two options:

  If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

  To do this, follow these steps:

  · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

  · Click settings

  · Click change PC settings

  · Click general in the left column

  · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

  Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

  I have a HCL laptop with windows 7 in there. At the time of purchase they (HCL) gave a set of 2 CD of Windows 8 Pro. It is written "OEM Activation required 3.0" on the disks.

  If it's a free update which was accompanied by the system prior to the general availability of Windows 8 in 2012, then not as a product key will be automatically after when it is installed on the designated system.

• Activation of the product with the product key valid for windows XP

  To the right:
  I bought an upgrade to windows xp for many years with a valid product key, but recently I had rebuilt my computer and reinstalled windows xp.  Under the limit of 30 for actiavtion, I entered my product key and it was invalid, I called microsoft and gave them 9 blocks of 5 digits, and they were able to activate my product.  When I spoke to a representative, they confirmed that my product key is valid, but they were unable to help me activate my windows OS, except for fees of $ 59.  The second option was to write an email through this site.  Please, if possible give me instructions on how can I activate my product key.  Thank you, Kevin Martin

  I ring back again and get an operator who actually knows what they are doing - XP is still supported for activation problems, regardless of the level of MS, if I understand correctly.
  Your problem seems to be that you have installed a version update of XP without having anything to upgrade? (I don't think that was possible).
  Try to install the missing Service Packs - any attempt activation again.

• Use the product key OEM with Windows Vista fresh install

  Hello. I got my Acer Aspire 5517 laptop for my birthday a few years ago (with Vista pre-installed). A genuine OEM product key is located at the bottom of the laptop. How can I use it with a new installation? Or can I somehow get an ISO or CD OEM Microsoft's file, or download it online somehow? Please don't tell me to upgrade to Windows 7, as I don't have hundreds of dollars to spend right now. Thank you!

• I upgraded my computer and re-installed everything, but it won't let me use the product key to validate windows and make it genuine. What can I do?

  Basically, the title says it all.  I got a new processor and motherboard a months ago and decided I would just start clean, so I wiped my HARD drive.  Reinstalled and everything works beautifully, but windows will not let me post it, saying that the code has already been used.  Is there a way to reset the code or something else?  Thanks in advance.
