Vista Home Premium suddenly said that my product is not authentic...
I bought my laptop years ago, it came with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium preinstalled. It was working fine up until a week or two ago when it suddenly appeared saying that my product is not authentic. Help me please!
Thanks in advance.

Can I download Vista Home Premium somewhere and use the product key I have now?
Original title: ACER GRRRRR! Can I download Vista Home Premium somewhere and use the product key I have now?
I need to reformat my laptop Acer Aspire 5520, but Acer WON'T provide me with the disks required to do... so my question is this; How can I reformat without having to buy a new drive for Windows Vista? I went to the site of the Acers and downloaded all the drivers, applications, and the bios, but I can't find anywhere on Windows. Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance for your help!Hello
It s no vista for free and legally download
with an acer you never drives with him press Alt + F10 when you see the Acer start at startup screen
who should begin the process of recovery back to factory settings
Acer has do provide you with a way to reinstall vista, either way or a recovery (Alt + F10) on your disk partition hard or using recovery discs
and read this:
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Now, I had recover and restore to factory settings on my PC for the 2nd time in 2 years (I think a problem for Vista?). Rather than activate Vista Home Premium (which I did not anyway-25 character product code), I thought it would be beneficial (and relieve another instance) upgrade to Windows 7? I would appreciate any thoughts. Is that what I do online and Windows 7 will work around the Windows Vista Home Premium? No risk of problems since Windows 7 is new? I basically use it for home, but like following applications. Windows 7 is having the same issues that has Vista?
You cannot switch to windows 7 since Vista without activation of Vista.

A legal version of Vista Home premium suddenly "not true."
Yesterday I suddenly got an alert on my cell "Windows Vista (TM) Build 6002 this copy of Windows is not genuine".
My copy is pre-installed on my Lenovo Y510 laptop several years ago and is the real deal.
I did nothing unusual/different to my laptop only a few weeks, against my better judgment, I downloaded and installed SP2. I had all sorts of issues with SP2 in the past and uninstalled many years ago but as I could not find a security (Norton or Kaspersky) package that could work without it, I had to install again.Diagnostic report (1.9.0027.0):

I tried to follow the instructions you gave, but was never given the option to "Country" or "Phone Activation" - perhaps because Vista is preinstalled by Lenovo? I just kept getting messages that I have the product was not authentic and if necessary, to buy a new code of product etc...
So I ignored the messages that the version of Windows, I had was invalid and found and seized the key to product repeatedly. Of course I should have done cela all along , but I assumed that the messages I received on the version being not authentic not meant that this step would bring back me to square one - and other assignments seem to imply the same - a message that the version was not genuine meant that it would be useless to enter the product key.
. My version is now accepted as authentic by just entering the product key, although I seem to have lost some functionality (background had to be changed etc.). And I am still puzzled about my Vista how happened to legal illegal overnight!My apologies to send you on a wild goose chase!

I have Windows Vista Home Premium and I lost my product key!
I have Windows Vista Home Premium and I lost my case with the product key to this topic! I really need help! Can someone help me?
If the operating system is running - use Belarc Advisor to retrieve the key. www.Belarc.com
If the OS is always installed, but inaccessible, you can still be able to recover, depending on what is causing the problem - come back with details.
If you have reformatted, about maybe possible get the key - but unlikely.
If the HD is dead, or you have crushed the old installation, then you are out of luck.

Is there an expiration?
You actually have a MSDN subscription where you obtained this license or did you get the someones MSDN subscription license?
If you got someone, then the license is used. If its your subscription, you have a few options.
Reactivate the existing product key by phone or get another key for Windows 7 Home Premium on your subscription and use it.

Why is-Windows Vista Home Premium suddenly full of bugs?
My taskbar becomes glitchy at least 5 times a day. I can't right click and maximize/minimize a window in the taskbar. The tabs in the window in the taskbar are mixed and overlap on the other. In addition to this, most of my icons can not work the way they used to.
Help, please.
Well, I've restored my computer to factory settings and works very well for the last 2-3 hours. After a few hours, I have the same problem all over again after the download and installation of Windows updates.
I still need help. :(
Uninstall the installed updates and install them one at a time to find the culprit.
Also - is that what you did update all hardware drivers? Use not anything BUILT IN Windows to do - actually figure on what hardware you have (motherboard chipset, video card, audio devce (s) of device and network for example) and withdraws the manufacturers of each driver.
