  Is the installed version must be exactly the same with the WAU product key pack? I think of my installed Professional is an advanced version of Home Premium. Why not the product key be compatible?

• I've upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 last week. I reinstalled Microsoft Office Standard 2007, but the website says that my product key is not valid.

  The software was initially loaded on the computer that has been upgraded.  The upgrade would not work, so the technician needed to install the full version of Windows 7.  When I try to install Office 2007 Standard, the registration Web site says that the product key is not valid. The software can be loaded on three computers (that took place), but a computer is the computer I want to re - install the program on.

  Use the phone activation option and speak to an operator.

  Hello

  You will need to purchase a license/disk/upgrade Windows 7 product key.

  Microsoft sells more Windows 7 and you would have to buy from Amazon, etc.

  There was a free upgrade offer, but it expired a long time ago:

  "The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program works on June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option. »

  __________________________________________________

  There is no Vista SP3; SP2 has the latest Service Pack for Vista and will be the last.

  Before purchasing Windows 7, follow these steps:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

• My windows product key is not valid.

  Hello

  My windows product key is not valid. It shows that I don't ' have a genuine windows, and so I entered the product key to activate

  and its not to validate. It was workiing before, just do not know what happened.

  Help, please.

  Thank you!

  I wanted to tell the name of version (e.g. Windows 7 Home Premium) printed on the sticker.  Is the version currently installed on the PC of the same version?  Check in Control Panel > system page.  The number is the ID of the product that is not supposed to be the same as the key.

  If the versions are identical, then the problem is a bad character entered, almost always.

  If the product key is readable, then you can certainly use it to Clean install Windows Upgrade 10. Look over the steps and ask in return if you have any questions.

• 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

  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.
