What should I do if my windows 7 is not genuine?

I built this computer a few weeks ago, but could not activate windows 7. (Home premium 64-bit) He said that my code has been blocked by Microsoft. If I buy a new key (Home premium 64-bit) Windows 7, would this work?

Is it a family license of Windows 7 Edition authentic Premium not in use elsewhere? Have you tried phone activation?

You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.

There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

    You must first remove Windows 8 on the computer by restoring it to its factory State. This will allow you to transfer the license to another computer and reactivate over the telephone:

    New computers that come pre-installed with Windows often have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    ------------------

    Continue to install 8 Windows on the new computer and reactivate by phone if necessary:

    1. press the Windows key + X , and then click run, and then type: slui.exe 4

    2. then press the ENTER"" key.

    3. Select your "country" in the list.

    4. choose the option "activate phone".

    5. stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.

    IAM running FF4, my Bank does not support it. They say to use another browser. AMI don't know how to do this. I thought that you can use only one? What should I do to access sites that do not support Firefox 4

    You can still install multiple browsers on your PC. Personally, I think it's essential in case one of the browsers does not work, you will have another one to use as a stand-by. You can download IE or Chrome. If you decide to use IE along with Firefox, you can use the IE View add-on that will allow you to open the Web site in Internet Explorer, without closing Firefox:

    These discs can somehow convince Windows that my installation is legitimate?

    is your computer HP no. had an OEM license, and may not be transferred to another computer.  Try to use these discs to the computer somehow on-the-job will ensure that you will never fix your activation problem.

    - - - - - - - - - - - -

    In your new question, it might be advisable to use activation by telephone.  You can get the number to use by typing slui 4 [not only slui] in your search box of the start menu.

    There might be a technical problem that needs fixing first, so you could wait and the advice.  There are problems in other parts of the system that can destroy havoc of activation as having a substantially incorrect clock time.
