Update license key OEM for vmware fusion
I'm moving from a windows7 (64-bit Home Premium) to a Mac Book. I want to import my old PC as a virtual machine using VMware fusion.
I am trying to determine what is necessary from the point of view license.
The original license is OEM so I think that it may have an update - is just a case of getting a new license key?
I tried the update by using the update at any time of mechanism, but this no longer works
How can I get the appropriate license change to allow me to get the installed virtual machine?
Thank you!
Hello
Thank you for your reply and sorry for the late reply.
You can follow the procedure referred to in article of VMware Fusion below to migrate your system of operating existing for Windows 7 to your new MacBook.
Migrate a physical PC existing to a Virtual Machine.
After that, get Windows 7 successfully migrated you will need to purchase a new license Windows 7 key (rightly underlined André Da Costa, OEM licenses are linked to all first computer, you install and activate Windows on).
You need to activate your migration to Windows 7 operating system with the new license key.
You don't need to reinstall Windows 7 when you migrate your operating system on a new computer through VMware.
Warning: using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
Hope this information is useful. Please answer for any further assistance.

A product key from an old computer can be used for vmware fusion on a new mac?
We used to own a Dell computer with windows XP Professional OS. Lately, we have switched all of our Mac computers and no longer use the old windows computer. I have the product key for this OS and I was hoping to use the CD of windows XP on VMware fusion and relocation (in order to play video games). So far, the installation was almost a success until it would not accept the old operating system product key. Is there a way to get a new product key?
PS The only purpose is for the PC games we have.can I get another free product key? I still have the old computer
you need to know if the old pc had an O E M version of windows, because
windows OEM versions are locked to the motherboard of the PC they where first installed at.
If the product key you have is from a version marketed Windows (non oem) you can install the version on another pc if you take away the first pc.
in other words, a version on a pc at the same time.
You should check with the microsoft Web site dealing with pirated software and product keys.

I recently did a clean install with the disc that came with my Dell XPS6400 (bought in the auction) local computer, which had only "Vista 32bits" written on it and no product key. I thought I could use the key on the sticker on the underside of the computer OEM license, even if the 2 characters in the 3rd section were partially missing - they had to be one of the other four. When OEM license was initially considered valid, I realized that I had not yet downloaded a service pack, but after that, he was still to come as being invalid! Then, I found that the version of Vista that was on the disc was "Home Premium" and the OEM for "Home Basic" license key Do I have to reinstall the whole system, drivers, etc., in order to establish the upgrade? (Please say "NO", there is an easier way to do this! Here's the MGADiag. -I hope it helps. :-}

Reinstall the correct Systyem, Windows Home Edition basic operation to use this product key.
And Microsoft sells more than Vista.
To reinstall Vista Home Basic read this information.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought, not that one 32-bit, vista, your computer must be on the hard drive to reinstall recovery Partition Vista to how you bought your computer, which may or may not work after the installation of the wrong edition.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

best way to get XP for vmware fusion
I have vmware fusion 3.1.3 on macbook pro. I currently have a virtual machine, I installed win 2K Server. too old, too big. I need to get xp and do an installation. I tried to make a snapshot of the existing machine, but seemed to make mistake on the OEM version and wants me register and pay as the new. I have a win 7 pro machine, I guess I could try to make instant, but I was wondering if v3.1.3 will even run that? So, what is the best way to way (see below) to get a XP installation for my installation of vmware fusion run? Fiscally constrained, won't be upgrading to fusion or pay retail for XP anytime soon.
It will be VERY difficult to get copies of legitimate retail XP more. Most of the things on eBay is also OEM, which is not available for use of the VM.
Do not forget that you must purchase a license of said too (the version on the existing machine is probably an OEM version too).
Why not just buy Win7 on amazon or costco?
The only other option is a sort of MSDN license, but these licenses cannot be used for production purposes.

Can I update license key after the completion of Setup vCloud?
Today, I downloaded VMware vCloud Director 1.0 and there period 60 days evaluation license.
Can I update the license key at the end of my current setup with the evaluation period?
After that update the license key not my setup as it is?
Is this right way of updating the key? [\[Administration-> parameters-> license-> serial number system]
Yes you can, just adjust it upward and at the end just add your license key. (administration-> system-> license)

Is a Windows 7 license key valid for both 32-bit and 64-bit?
I received today an NFR of Windows 7 Ultimate copy at the launch of Microsoft. He has a valid (I hope!) but license key the DVD is 32-bit. The same license key is valid for the 64-bit installations as well? In other words, if I get a copy of the DVD 64 bit, can I use the license key, I just got?
It is a new installation on a system that currently has Vista 32 bit.
Thank you
... /EdNow that I know that Win 7 64 bit works very well with my hardware. Can I legally get my Windows Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 32 bit? And keep two versions of Windows 7 on the same machine.
If you have a license of Windows 7, you can have a Windows 7 installation.
To install Windows 7 32 bit, you will need to first format/remove 64-bit install.
You will need to purchase a license/second key to install Windows 7 twice at the same time. There is no discount on a second license if you already have a license.

Separate partition for VMWare Fusion
Is it a good idea to put a disk/partition separated to install VMWare Fusion and Windows? I'm trying to separate on an Apple iMac programs and by Fusion/Windows programs and data.
Thank you
Felix
How you want to manage your host file system of the disk is really up to you and a Virtual Machine is nothing more then a set of files on the file system of the host and are under normal circumstances essentially autonomous. It you do not call options like VMware Shared Folders and more particularly mirrored folders and files created by an application in the OS of the Virtual Machine are separate and apart from the files created by applications on the host computer as they are stored in disk files hard (hard) within the entire Virtual Machine virtual. For reference, take a look on: work with Virtual Machine packages
That said, I personally keep my Virtual Machines on another physical partition of the hard drive of the host or a separate hard drive from the hard drive of the host completely OS. Basically I have what it takes to be able to restore my OS host partition separately from my drive/Partition/Volume data only when user / as appropriate.

No Win7 x 64 drivers for VMWare Fusion bridge or a NAT?
New Snow Leopard Mac, new installation of Boot Camp of Win7 x 64 professional. All drivers install; works very well. Then I install VMWare Fusion 3.0 and tell him to pick up my Boot Camp partition. This works. Install VMWare Tools; This works.
But the ethernet controller will not be installed in Win7.
I have uninstall the device from Device Manager and reboot, not good. I move from NAT to bridged and don't reboot, no good. I switch back, no good. I go OS type of XP and restart, not good. I switch back to Win7 x 64 and restart, not good. I switch back to NAT and restart, not good. I mount the CD of VMware tools in Win7 and I have Windows search for drivers controller ethernet, not good. I can not get the networking between the two machines to work.
What can I try next?
Thank you very much.
What is happening is that the virtual machine is probably failing to an AMD PCnet NETWORK eCard interface, for which neither Windows 7 nor VMware Tools has a driver for x 64 hosts. The type of virtual NETWORK adapter appropriate for the guest operating system is a device for Intel E1000 - Windows 7 provides out of the box.
Ensure that the vmx for your virtual machine file has the following line in
ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000".

Win7 switching to Parallels Desktop 4 for VMWare Fusion 2 under Snow Leopard
Hi guys,.
I moved my Windows 7 install Parallels to Fusion, but when I go into the Device Manager, it mentions an unknown Ethernet controller and a unknow SCSI controller. I have no network on the virtual machine, which is bad, since it's my Office desktop environment. What can I do to reinstall the NIC to a working state? When I click on it, say update driver and driver search, he found nothing. I also tried the VMWare Tools for editing and let him use the CD, but no luck it no more.
See you soon
Nik
It seems to me that the conversion of Parallels set up Fusion for the type to PCnet NIC. You should not need to hack around to try to find a driver for Windows 7 PCnet. Instead, try to force the virtual network adapter to be a type of map NETWORK Intel e1000 (IIRC is the default value for a virtual Vista computer). Change virtual machine (with closed merger) .vmx file, and either a) add this line, or b) change a line beginning with ethernet0.virtualDev to match:
ethernet0.virtualDev = "e1000".
and see if Windows detects the card and it combines a driver.

How long the license key latest for Windows Vista
The other day a person allegedly from Microsoft phoned to tell me that my activation license has expired and that my computer has been damaged by a virus that kept sending error messages. As my license has expired, they were not able to fix the problem and I had to pay £70.00 to renew and to help more of them, otherwise my PC was getting more slower and slower all day. I hung up. But it got me thinking, it was a spam?
All the Licenses for Windows retail (including upgrades) are transferable to the new machines (in the case of an upgrade it will still a qualifications base on the new machine license) and are actually eternal - at least until there is no material more around which it will run.
OEM licenses are locked to the first machine on which they are turned on - but finally done as the motherboard (and the replacements of vices).

RedHat 64-bit P2V for VMWare Fusion
I need to convert a 64-bit RedHat Linux virtual physical machine, and I installed the vCenter Converter Standalone software, both on the Linux machine so that a Windows machine I have practice. The converter on the Windows machine is able to connect, and then select the Linux as a Source, but then I get to the Destination option and he asks me a destination server. I read in the user's guide:
NOTE for P2V of Linux, the only destination supported conversion tasks is a product of VMware Infrastructure Virtualization.
Is it simply not possible to get since Linux merger? Or can I install a 'product of VMware Infrastructure Virtualization' temporarily for the purpose of creating a virtual machine, then copy the virtual machine to a Mac running Fusion?
It's probably hardware not supported.
I have not personally used platespin, so I don't know if it can go directly to the Fusion 2/3 (or Workstation 6.5.x)
Kind regards
