  How can you find the product key if the laptop was a gift and you do not have a cd

  Hello

  If you are unable to retrieve the product key provided with the system then Windows communicate with the system
  Maker.

  Look at the lower/rear part computer and tape or disks that came with the unit.

  If the system is still running, you can use these to access your product key. These are not cracks, they
  only retrieve your existing key.

  One of them allows to recover your machine if possible.

• After disk hard crash, loaded Windows 7 and get "Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations.

  Original title: Windows Vista product key used for any new installation.

  I bought the upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows Vista CD, then had a hard drive crash, then installed a new hard drive. Load the purchased Windows 7 on new hard drive, now I get the message '... Software Licensing Service determined that specified only usable product key for the upgrade, not for new installations. That means that I have to load Vista on the new hard drive, and then update? Both for the end user (paying customer) hostile.

  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.

• Cannot activate Windows 8 error "the Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not to own pieces."

  Original title: invalid product key :(

  Today, I tried to load my computer and was faced with the blue screen error short story that my hard drive some how became corrupt and had no partition. Fortunately, I had a friend who told me step by step how to solve this problem using my hard drive in my brothers pc. When it came to reinstalling windows I booted the computer directly from my windows disc 8 and when I tried to activate the key once I was ready to I received an error Code: 0xC004F061Description: The Software Licensing service determind that specified only usable product key for the upgrade not for own pieces. Means that I can not use the key I bought and must buy a new one? It seems really unfair because I've already spent money on the upgrade.

  You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)

  If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

  If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

• dissipated in the tag of the product key on the laptop, where I can find what it is

  product key for my laptop disappeared from the tag, how do I know what it is?

  Hello

  As you have lost the product key of the laptop, it's a preinstalled operating system and you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer.

  They give you a different product key.

  What you can do now is ask them to send you a set of recovery disc for the computer model reinstall the operating system to how it was when new.

  Also while you are in contact with them, if you never receviced a reinstall to purchase drive, ask them how to make the recovery discs to do the same thing, if you still have access to the recovery partition.

  Also ask them how to use specific keys to reinstall.

  None of these methods of resettlement requires normally 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.

• Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the bottom would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Original title: ASUS x501a Windows 7-8.

  Hi all

  I just registered here after having been a Microsoft user, since I started using computers, I think that when I started to use it is Windows XP haha, anyway.

  I'm running Windows 7 on the following specifications

  4 GB of Ram

  HARD DRIVE 300 GB

  Intel core i3 clocked at 2.6 GHz

  Intel HD 3000 graphics card

  and it's an Asus x501a comes with 7 not 8, so I've upgraded to Windows 8, then I found out, I removed my recovery partition. Oops.

  I know it's not a way to make it back, unless I did a copy of CD as I do not have.

  so, if I got a copy of my friends Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the lower part would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Thank you

  Jordan Doughty

  PS: Sorry for mistakes in my writing, I'm not used to a Macbook: P

  If your friend has a retail upgrade or full version and it corresponds to the edition of your PC, then Yes, you can use it.

• Product key on the laptop does not work

  I have a windows product key 7 on my laptop, but it won't work to reinstall windows 7 on my pc.  Recently my windows startup files I screwed up and I couldn't boot into windows more.  How can I use the product key at the bottom of my laptop to re-install windows7?

  The disk or reinstall media you used to install Windows 7, it matches the product key? Or have you just used a disk for a different edition? Is the key product for Windows 7 Starter, basic family, Home Premium, professional or ultimate edition?

  How did you start the reinstallation?

  New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

  For Dell, press F8 on the keyboard until the Advanced Boot Options menu appears on the screen.

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

  For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

  For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

  Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

• Can we use this product key on the back of the laptop for the activation and the windows 7 Professional 32-bit to windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade?

  I have a laptop HP originally shipped with windows 7 32-bit professional. Now I want to upgrade to windows 7 professional 64 bit. I don't have with me installation disk. So I thought that it is possible (and legal) to resume an installation of windows 7 professional 64 bit disc from a friend and use this product key on the back of my laptop computer to activate windows after the installation of 64-bit? I'm a bit confused.

  NOTE: This sticker on the laptop has windows 7 pro oa, and a product key to 25 digits (xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx) written on it.

  In addition, the product ID in the information system in the control panel is OEM.

  Yes, you can use the product key located on the COA sticker with a full retail version or the version upgrade Windows 7 Professional disc.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

  Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)
  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:
  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.
  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• Save the Microsoft product key

  I just buy a satellite phone in Sydney Aus., but live in Bali Indonesia, I tried to activate the microsoft programs and been invited to copy down the product key on the back of the laptop, having done that I received the response from Microsoft, which is not a valid product key, what is there I can do?

  Hello

  The answer is very simple. Each CD of all versions of the operating system or facilities has a product key. Your laptop comes with the operating system that has the product key and this key is in the lower corner of your laptop. Buy the laptop you also bought the operating system.

  If you want to install the other version, you need to buy or have the key valid for this version and it cannot be used valid keys for the delivered version.
