  I bought a desktop computer.  When you buy windows 7 it was only a month, that is why the case included a free upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7.

  I need to re - install Windows to solve several problems with the PC.

  I have the DVD Windows 7 Home Premium and the product key.

  I don't have the media or Windows Vista product key.

  I'll be able to directly install the upgrade DVD/key? or do I have to install Vista first?  Will I need a product key for Vista?

  Hello

  When you bought your desktop computer, you had Vista on it.

  You have received a Windows 7 Upgrade disk and license.

  Reinstall Vista > making the Windows 7 upgrade.

  You need OS eligible to upgrade

  You should have a COA sticker with the product key Vista on this subject in the case of funds.

  If you have lost it, order the recovery of the manufacturer media.

  

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

• Satellite L300 - need to Win Vista product key

  I have a Satellite L300. OS recently broke down and recovery CD does not work.
  I got another CD of instalation windows vista but windows at the back of the laptop dispelled the label, and I can't read the code.

  I can provide the invoice product or information of the laptop required for security reasons.

  How can I return the product key?

  Thank you

  Product key placed in the lower corner of your laptop is useless for you. Why?
  This product key is for the original version of recovery that you have with your machine and cannot be used for activation if you install Windows by using the original Microsoft facilities.

• Re: vista product key needed (new drive HARD - used product recovery cd)

  I had to put a new hard drive in my laptop, after the failure of the original one.
  I then reinstalled Vista using the recovery CD of product supplied with the laptop (not the recovery CD I did as it didn't work!)

  Vista is now asking me to provide a product key that is incorrect.
  I tried the button on the bottom of the laptop, but it does not work.

  I what to do?

  > . I tried the button on the bottom of the laptop, but it does not work

  The Windows product key on the underside of your laptop is an OEM license key. This means that t can be used with other versions of Windows.

  > What to do?

  Buy Windows key or order a recovery disc if they are available:

• Vista product key in use. Code 0xC004C003

  I hope someone can advise as Microsoft have been pretty useless in my opinion.

  I have a foreign boy to stay with me at the moment. His English is not perfect, so he asked me to try to sort it out with all the phone calls etc.

  He has a Toshiba Vista home premium laptop. A few weeks back he sees at a computer store that he has had a problem & thought that it may have a virus & I understand that they reformat the drive.

  Everything was fine until last night when he got the screen message Windows needed to be activated, but when we tried to do it would not accept the key that came with his edition of Windows. It says product key is in use & gave a code 0xC004C003. Down in the corner, he said something along the lines of the copy of windows is not not authentic, but it doesn't have a legitimate key that came with the Windows installed when he bought the computer.

  I seem to have spent hours on the phone with Microsoft yesterday & this morning gave me a new key to try but that no longer works. Then I learned by a very steep call center worker (which again seems to be outsourced in India) that they are not technicians so I need either call Microsoft Technical support, which charge something like £50 or more when helping with technical problems or that the owner of the computer has to contact Toshiba.

  As all of its documentation of the computer is back in Saudi, where he bought the computer shortly before coming to the United Kingdom, I don't know how helpful to make meetings Tobishba themselves to aid would be.

  If someone could give advice I would be really grateful, even if it's to say that the only way to solve this problem is to contact Toshiba or help sky, Microsofts scammed technical assistance service.

  I spent almost all day trying to find a solution for him, phoning & searching the net etc think that perhaps the only thing for him to do is to go back to the store of the computer where the laptop has been reformatted, but it's miles away on the other side of London, & I'm not sure that this is the solution to his problem.

  Hello Sal

  You are right. Each Toshiba laptop comes with preinstalled operating system and the clean image of Toshiba recovery facilities. This image should not be enabled.

  So all that needs to be done is OS install with the supplied media.
