  • 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.

  • Activation Windows 7 - "enter a genuine Windows product key.

    My mother-in-law has purchased a new PC desktop Acer in PC World (retailer of the United Kingdom). It came with Windows 7 out of the box and worked for several months, but this week gave error on activation messages. In the computer properties screen, it says "Activation status not available".

    Running the online activation tool gives the error "Windows validation has detected and repaired an activation exploit (used to prevent the proper functioning of the integrated components of Windows license)." You must activate Windows to complete the repair process and be able to use all the features of Windows. Do not worry, we can help you with that. »

    QUESTION: Since I do not know if this license is a license in "Volume" or an "OEM license" it is unclear what instructions to follow...
    I tried the Windows product key update tool... .on the on the system, which withdraws as 'Authentic' (Validation status: genuine) which failed (as described below).  Is it possible to replace this with the "real" product key?

    Following the instructions in http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/help/genuine/product-key for Windows XP.

    It is said that I typed the product key is not valid for activation and when I checked the MS sticker that has been damaged, I discovered I have just 5 days to activate it please help.

    A key active OEM_SLP automatic when all things are right - there no need to connect to the Activation of MS servers to do.

    If the conditions are not suitable for a triggered OEM_SLP key, then it will attempt activation with the servers of MS - they are blocked from activation and therefore return an 0xC004C003 error.

    I said looking for the key - not the word :)

    On-site product keys to compare, it says:

    OS version: Windows XP Professional
    Manufacturer: TOSHIBA
    Model: Satellite M60
    Product key: *-*-*-*-P6R2Y

    It shows the make and model.
    However, I use a Windows Xp Home Edition and this CD key is fine with *-*-*-*-Q6JWG.
    And the product key for my laptop is fine with *-*-*-*-GCFKM.

    Then I download the Windows product key update tool and put in both the product key on the CD and laptop.
    Two of them doesn't work. I want to know how can I update the Service Pack for my windows. Can anyone help? THX!

    What can I do for this? THX!

    Hello

    I read a few threads about similar problems with the BONE key and the key change has always helped
    Sometimes, Microsoft rates the key of the image as incorrect or not valid. Why? I don't know... it's Microsoft you know ;)

    Fact is that the key on the cover of the CD can only be used to activate the software Microsoft Works or OneNote installed on the laptop. The key is not responsible for the Windows operating system.
    The key that could be used with the Win operating system is placed at the bottom of the unit.

    Well, according to your message you used this key and now I m a bit confused
    I think you should make a call to the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country to clear this problem

  • Find my Windows product key 8 and Dell service in general.

    Hi folx, I'm new to the forum.

    I have a desktop Dell dimension 3100 on win XP and in January, I bought an inspiron 660 desktop computer, but the service I am experience leaves many to be honest. They have no knowledge of my purchase, although I bought them online! My service tags are not recognized and I am now almost two months since I bought it; I can't access the support page using my service tag. Absolutely hopeless. What is the point to give e-mail addresses and tags of service etc., if they have no intention on a support, it seems to me that the only thing working at Dell, is the phone line, they don't seem to know how to upgrade its support page. I have sent countless emails and they answer simply say that they have failed to make any progress. Not the Dell company I know. I said to organize the uprising of the inspiron since they cannot support. Where can I find my windows product key? I can't find it anywhere on my computer, is there any way I can find it in the software? I tried to call Dell and they don't have a clue! I wish I had bought another PC now, anywhere but Dell. I bought it because I could not their fault on their support for my old dimension and (stupidly) thought things were the same. More wrong! I have since my old dimension work, so I need the manufacturer cannot support me with a new PC. I want a refund. rant on!

    Here's how to find the product key:

    Download Belarc Advisor, a free PC audit program with full support for Windows 8, which also functions as a key research tool. Unfortunately, locate manually Windows 8 product key in the registry is not possible, so you will need to use a program like this.

    www.Belarc.com/.../advisorinstaller.exe

    Free Key Finder programs to offer more tools like Belarc Advisor but please first try since I have upheld finds it correctly the product keys for Windows 8.

    Note: Any search for product keys which announces support for Windows 8 will work for each edition: Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro, and most likely the two editions of Windows 8.1.

    Installation of the Belarc Advisor, no matter what the instructions during the installation of the suite.

    Run Belarc Advisor (the initial analysis may take some time) and note the product key Windows 8 posted in the section software licenses.

    The product key of Windows 8 is a series of 25 letters and numbers, and should look like this: xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.

    Note the Windows 8 key exactly as indicated for use when reinstalling Windows 8.

    Important: Make sure that each letter and number is written exactly as shown. If even a figure is not properly transcribed, the key will not work to reinstall Windows 8.

    Hello

    I have the windows product key sticker, but some of them are deleted. I really need help if I can send a photo to show him what it's like. I formatted my laptop and he asks the authentic copy. I really need help coz 2 days left to activate.

    Thanks in advance

    You can extend the activation period of 30 days by running slmgr /rearm since the Admin command prompt.

    Then take a picture of your COA sticker with your phone, blow as large as possible to try to detect all the characters input for Activation.  You can also use a magnifying glass.

    If you can not use the key to product then you will need to either the order of the restoration of the factory of the manufacturer of your PC media, or if you have a C:\windows.old folder you can try to reinstall the factory to SLP activation file.  However we do not support this so you will need to search on your own.

  • Where to find the 8 unique language of 64-bit windows product key?

    Dear,

    I have Toshiba P850 with 64-bit Windows 8 unique language pre-installed. I could not find the product key on the back of the laptop, then I tried the Toshiba web site and find nothing, I also tried the Microsoft Web site and failed to find an answer.

    As I'm ready to upgrade to windows 8.1 (only one language of course), I found the product key, always not sure if Microsoft will upgrade the single language version too, so, I'll keep waiting for an answer to this question.

    By clicking on 'Show details in Windows Activation' I found a two groups of characters, but the 1st group is five asterisks. As far as I know, the Windows product key contains five groups of characters.

    My concern is to ask if this version of windows will have a product key, if there is a product key, can someone tell me where to find it?

    My gratitude to all,

    Ayad,
