• Product key is not accepted after the upgrade in Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate.

  I changed to a new computer that has windows 7 on it and I used my upgrade to ultimate but it will not take the proudct key.  I'm guessing that because he was on the old computer.  How do I just get a new key or change from the old computer?

  If the new computer comes with Windows 7 Home Premium or another edition of Windows 7, just use the Windows 7 Ultimate product key and do an Express Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade from in the edition of Windows 7 you are now running on the computer.

  If the license for Windows 7 Ultimate, you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and upgrade Express from Windows 7 to Windows 7 Ultimate edition. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Ultimate edition at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate files the stored settings and programs.

• Help with error message: "Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed in is invalid for activation.

  Original title: help with error message... Please...!

  I use a desktop PC of HP Pavilion a6202.uk with Windows Vista Home Premium & Microsoft Office 2003.  When I am back from vacation & turned on my PC, my password was OK, but rather to raise Windows, I received the following message: "Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed in is invalid for activation.  He then listed the following options: "access your computer with reduced functionality (this will allow you to buy a product online key)" or "Type a different product key" or "contact HP to help solve this problem."

  I have no idea what a product key is and don't have anything either in the type comes to connect as usual.  I can't access anything to be same to reduced functionality.  I can not type in a new product key because I did not.  I can not contact HP - phone number does not... !!

  I'm quite desperate, I travel docs to print and e-mail to answer and I don't have any idea what is happening.  Please can someone help with this not very IT clued-up DTP...!

  Moved from Vista programs Forum.

  You should have a sticker with the product key on your computer, on the bottom, or under the battery cover.  I try to type this key in and see if it accepts it.  If this isn't the case, you might not have an authentic version of Windows installed.

• How can I get a valid Windows Vista Home Premium product key for my Acer Aspire 5050?

  My hard drive failed in my Acer Aspire 5050.  Replaced, reinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium with the appropriate product key, but Microsoft says that it is invalid.  Microsoft wants to buy me a new copy of Windows & there is no available from Acer for my laptop recovery disk.  What can I do?

  The product key on the bottom of the laptop is an OEM product key.  This product key does not work for the commercial versions of the operating system.  The original shipping charge might work on the system without entering a product key.

  If you did not, or are no longer able to get the recovery media, you will have to buy an operating system of your choice for the installation.

• Win Vista Home Basic product key is not valid

  I bought Vista Home Basic a wile ago. Now I've updated it. I want to reformat my PC, so I insert the DVD of Vista, and when I enter my product key I get the message "the key is incorrect. How can I fix it, I need to remove the updates or something?

  Hi cheater39,

  If you reinstall Vista you will have to update any new. If the operating system works very well, so it is useless to re - install in order to re - install. Once, re - install if you have multiple problems that can easily be corrected, and then reinstall is a "last" resort option

  You say you bought Vista Home Basic. I suppose, therefore, that you went into a store and bought a full retail copy? If so, the product key number is on the case. If you bought it from another source, for example, Internet, ebay etc (except direct from Microsoft) then you know that it's a genuine product key and not a copy hacked?

  It is in fact a copy of 'upgrade '? If so you need to install your "old" operating system first, for example, Windows XP and upgrade then.

  Check and recheck the code product key that you insert. If it continues to say the key is not valid, resume the DVD in the store that you bought it and ask them to check it for you. You can also contact the Microsoft Customer service in your own country - you should find one address number and/or e-mail on the Microsoft Web site.

  You can actually install Vista without product key by simply letting the dialog box empty product key and then pressing the next button. A message will appear in which you must press the No button. A list of the versions of Vista should then appear. Select the version that you have, for example, Vista Home Basic, press Next, then it should install. No you get away without putting the product key in. Although Windows Vista has been installed it works for a while, but it would give you time, we hope, sort out the product key number. After that the time scheduled (30 days I think) you will need to enter the correct product key otherwise Vista will simply stop working. This option is not ideal, but it will give you as small period of "grace." If you cannot sort the product key on or, heaven forbid, you ended up buying a pirated copy, you will have no real alternative but to buy another legitimate copy.

  I suggest you use my last suggestion as a "last resort" option Try to install on another machine to see if the product key works, or taking it back to the shop and ask them why it won't install.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  My netbook has a virus and I need to reinstall my windows xp.unfortunately my sticker is no longer legible, so I can't access my product key. One of my reinstallation cd told me that my product key is not valid... What do I do... i tried to call the phone numbers given on the Web site, but no one answers me.

  Hi el_gwapa,

  If you use a relocation of the disc from the manufacturer of the computer, then you may need to contact the manufacturer and see if you can get a product key.

  Also check the following links to get a new product key for Microsoft:

• Product key is not valid after the re - install Windows 7.

  Original title: assistance required with Activation.

  Separated from this thread.

  I have the same question by looking at the subject of this thread.  I'll explain my problem.  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L670, which has Windows 7 above.  In order to run a specific program, it called for Windows 7 Professional, got the unlocked key this portion ran the program without problems so far.

  Recently ran a upgrade to Windows 8 problem, someone else has started to use the major problems of the computer.  Has decided to restore the computer to Windows 7.  Entered product key codes, but the computer is showing the products are not authentic.  I have the key for Windows 7 and Windows 7 Pro unlock codes, but it contains the code of the key is not genuine.  Suggestions?

  Here are my options in terms of original software for this software:

  1. He is currently a Windows 7, which came with the computer - tell me how to remove the upgrade to Windows 7 Pro
  2. I have an upgrade to Windows 7 Pro key - work not
  3. I have an unregistered Windows 8 upgrade that, I uninstalled it due to the update of loop that drove me crazy

  Thanks in advance

  Use your Tosh recovery disks, starting from them and reinstall win7 as pre-installed by Tosh.

  PS It would be quite unusual for a program to require a specific version of win7, what is this program?
