• I had to reinstall Windows XP Pro after a hard disk crash. Sent product key Microsoft form with the Windows disk is invalid.

  Some time ago I bought a computer with Windows XP pre-installed.  I have not received a CD with it.  At one point, during an update Windows online, I learned that the copy of Windows was not authentic, and the place I bought it from was out of business.  I then bought Windows XP Pro Microsoft online and went through the update of product with the Windows product key update tool and ran OK from there.
  Well, my HDD recently crashed, and I started to install the Windows XP Pro purchased CD on a new hard drive.  The installation was asked to enter the 25-digit product key, I found that the unique product key sent with the CD has been a key 20 digits in this format; Product key: SKU:B7P - 00005 KEY01:xxxxx - xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-CD2.   (The x are just for the format).

  What do need me do to be able to install my real purchased copy of Windows XP Pro?

  The numbers you enter are not the product key. Contact Ms. online where you bought the CD or try some of the links below:

• can't activate windows xp with the product key that came with the computer

  I got a computer of 510N HP Pavilion from a friend who was absolutely riddled with viruses and malware of all kinds.  Every thing I did to clarify apparently nowhere got done or made it worse.  At the end of the day, the computer would only begin to restart, stop after the start of the HP logo screen, then start to boot, etc and more.  All I could do was to install the hard drive in another computer and format, from scratch.  Now, I'm trying to install the system to XP op for the disc that came with the computer.
  the problem: the code the product key on the case went wrong with the disc.  After searching for solutions, I found a code on the disk by searching the files it contains, tried and it worked!  Problem is when I try to turn it on, it says it's an "unauthorized product key."  I tried to enter that code on the box and who says he is "invalid".  The Cd look authentic; are for distribution with new pc HP and Compaq.  After a further inspection drives are XP Professional SP2, while if it is XP Home Edition.  What gives?  Activation does not anyway. It is any use that will not make me buy a new set of disks?

  Please let me know if more info or detail is necessary.

  PS - only a single piece of hardware has been changed - the cdrom initially provided with the computer was bad, so I went out to perform the installation.

  When you perform a restore to the factory on some HPs condition you have two choices: 1) a restoration which keeps your data and programs (in a repair installation); (2) a full destructive restore which brings back the machine to the State, it's when you first opened the box. In your case, you have already wiped the drive, so the question is moot. I would call the HP technical support. Normally when you use an OEM recovery media (HP, Dell, etc.) a product key is never required during the restore. If you have used the media to restore HP shipped with your system and are always asked for a key and one on the sticker machine is not accepted, then something is certainly.

• can I use the same product key for a gradient win 7 I'm ready to move from xp to win 7

  I bought a 7500 in 2010 precision workstation which came with win 7, but I asked to be demoted to xp. I'm ready to install the Windows 7 OS on the cd supplied with my system, original but I'm not sure if I need a new product key or can I use the same product key that has been activated as an OS xp to win 7 OS?

  The Dell Windows 7 reinstallation DVD will use the system locked preinstallation seizes only a generic Dell locked preinstallation key system which will automatically active if and only a valid Dell BIOS is detected. The same for the XP reinstallation CD.

  The COA affixed to the system must be Windows 7 Professional and must have a unique 25-digit product key for Windows 7 Professional. There is not need to be entered in the system locked preinstallation is used.

  This means that you must install the original version of Windows shipped with your computer if you are not Windows 7. Otherwise, you will need to set up or ask a family friend or a member of the family gift that you register.

  If you know a student, you could ask to purchase a license at price reduced for you.

• Back to Windows 7 Home premium to Windows 8? Product key for OEM (Toshiba) is available

  My new PC has Windows 7 Home premium pre-installed, and I've upgraded to Windows 8. I want to go back to Windows 7 - I have the product key on a sticker on my PC but not the drive - how can I do? Thanks in advance!

  Your computer is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition...

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

  For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

  For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

  For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

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

  For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

  For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

  Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

  Sony VAIO, restart and until that screen "Advanced Boot Options" appears, press "F8".

  You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

  After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.

• Windows 7 product key for purchase online.

  My copy of Windows 7 pro 64-bit kept crashing, so I decided to do a new install. Now, my first purchase of this software was Microsoft online, and when I did I chose to buy a recovery disk as well. for some reason, Microsoft refused to send a product key with the recovery disc, and now I can not activate my reinstallation of Windows 7. Is there anyway that I can deal with this without having to pay twice for the same software?

  Q: where can I find my product key?

  R: your product key will provide your purchase. However, if you need to find it once again it is back on your email confirmation or your digital content.

  1. Sign in with your Microsoft account.

• Product key for disk and the operating system of recovery

  Hi all

  My question is this - if I ordered a newly purchased set of recovery disc for my DV9700 laptop, done com with a new operating system product key? Or should I use the product key, attached to the laptop? Reason I ask is due to the couple of characters/numbers of the key product is barely understandable. I have to use the old product key, if not it means that the product key itself is stored in the BIOS or there is a set (list) fixed to the product on the recovery for key disc are compared to?

  Someone better, please enlighten me. Thank you

  Tom

  When you reinstall using HP recovery disks, it will be pre-activated key installed, you don't have to do anything

  The recovery disks must be for this particular model of Notebook, when you start the Recovery Manager it checks the bios for what is called a tattoo, the tattoo contains information on the laptop, the serial number, model number, number of motherboard, they should match the disks. Nothing to do with the VLK.

  VLK = key Volume License

  Looks like the seller tried to install Vista recovery disk no HP.

  "I should be able to use the recovery disk for my mobile dv9825nr on any other dv9825nr laoptop, right?"

  Yes
