to know the product key

sometimes back, I lost my BIOS password. If the system had to be formatted. When I rebooted windows I could not feed my windows key because it has been removed from the body of my laptop. Is my computer Toshiba laptop Satellite A100, model no is PSAABL-1QU04M AND THE serial number. is Z6156951Q of the India.

Yes... Unfortunately all of this information would mean nothing.  If you do not save your product key/CD/software/installation support / your stuff - there is not much anyone can do to help.
 
You * could * try to make contact with Toshiba - but it is unlikely that they will be able to help either.
 
Your only choice I see if it's possible - buy a new copy of the operating system with a new product key and make sure that you back up all this information in a strong external/trunk location this time.

    I would like to format my laptop and reinstall my windows home premium but I don't have the product key because under the laptop is not clear.how can I get it or can you give me.

    There are many key finder utilities, but they will only show the origonal license volume key manufacturers, which is not the same as the key on the base of the laptop.

    If you usually use the origonal recovery disks responsible to reinstall, it would not require any key required

    Hey Bjarnikr

    If you have already reinstalled vista and you don't know the product key we can not help you

    If you had contacted these forums before you reinstalled vista we helped you with key finder programs

    but as this is a new installation of vista not activated we cannot help you find the product key

    If it is preinstalled, I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of your computer and ask them about recovery disks

    normally, they do not require you to select a product key when you use them to reinstall vista

    you don't say how you reinstalled vista

    and a vista license = a vista installation

    and the oem licenses cannot be transferred to another machine

    the retail license can be transferred, but that only one installation per license is allowed at any time

  • Windows Vista - error in the product key

    I have had my computer for 3 years, just he lit after getting back from vacation and it says that my Windows Vista product key is not valid and don't allow me to the computer, with him giving options such as 'try a different product key' or 'buy new '. Windows is already installed on the computer, what do I do because it's not my fault he can't choose the product key to the top. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    If you mean that you can not activate automatically, try to do it manually:

    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.

    If the problem is you do not have or know the product key, post back because that is a different problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How identify which windows Vista worm was installed with the product key

    I have a laptop that someone put windows XP on it. It came factory thew with Windows Vista and has the product key on the bottom of the laptop. But I don't know which Ver of Vista the key code to go with. I want to get the right NVA and install it. Is there a way to know which version of windows Vista to go popular with the product key code.

    Thank you

    Mike

    You can't say the product key.  If you use an Installation of Vista genuine disc it will install its own version to know the product key when you are prompted to enter (all versions of the same size of the bit are included on the authentic disc).

    I hope this helps.

  • I have toshiba laptop and I have the product key and I do not know what windows is I can find it with the product key

    I have toshiba laptop and I have the product key and I do not know what windows is I can find it with the product key or any body help, I can't use it

    You must order a set of recovery disc for the computer from the manufacturer - this will install the appropriate drivers for your system automatically, as well as packaged applications.

    If you have not formatted the disk (or replaced) existing partition recovery may still be present - see your manual for details.

    It is possible to download Vista - see here for more details - http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/57-windows-vista-direct-download-links -, but note that it is not a simple process!

  • I would like to know how to re - install windows on a laptop with the product key on the back of the laptop.

    install windows with the product key

    someone I gifted an old laptop with a lot of things about what I don't want and stuff I want is missing. I would like to know how to re - install windows on the laptop with the product key on the back of my laptop.

    or, even better, if someone could find me a way to get a disk to restore to factory without purchasing information, which would be awsome.

    I thank you for your time and have a good day.

    If the laptop is one of the well known brands, he may well have a restore partition.  If you do not have a manual to the user of this computer, then go to the manufacturers website and look for the documentation.  At the very least, you should be able to find information about how to restore the laptop from the recovery partition.

    If the restore partition has been decimated, the manufacturer may still have available for a nominal cost of installation diskettes.

  • I don't know my product key. I don't have a disk it came with the pc and below when I try to read I can not, some numbers are scratched and I just format my pc what can do?

    Just installed windows 7 but I can't read my product key?

    Help me please thx!

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

  • How can I know my product key if I can't read it the sticker on my laptop and can't find it in any document supplied with the laptop?

    I have windows Vista Home Basic and I had a virus my laptop so had to wipe it and re install windows, but now he asks me my product key that I can't read the sticker as he had ripped a little...

    If you reinstall of the manufacturer's recovery disc then it should not ask for a product key.  That said, it is there no trace of the product key printed on the COA sticker on your computer.  Stickers are applied in batches at the factory and no record is made of what product key is associated with a specific machine.  I'm sorry.

    Check with the manufacturer if your computer has a recovery partition.  Who restores Windows to its factory condition.

    What kind ot disk you install from and entered with your computer?

  • entered the product key for windows vista... it says inncorrect? but his right... don't know what to do?
