  Appears that Microsoft has changed the terms of the license with Windows 8. See the next root thread: http://superuser.com/questions/517142/running-windows-8-in-a-vm-can-i-use-the-copy-that-came-with-my-laptop

  In addition, a rather good article exceeding the various changes in the terms of the license of the new Windows 8: http://www.zdnet.com/how-the-new-windows-8-license-terms-affect-you_p2-7000003028/

  They consider now a physical PC and a virtual machine to be * separated * computers. Since the preinstalled Windows 8 use an OEM license, this license cannot be moved between the "computers".

  For anyone interested in doing something similar (mobile Windows 8 in a virtual machine), you must purchase an additional license. Upgrade license or a System Builder should work.

  If you know the correct product key, you can block the user in use- but it won't stop them reformatting and reinstalling using recovery disks from the manufacturer to reinstall using the OEM_SLP key - and it would also prevent your use your laptop must be returned.

  You must contact one of the centers of activation and inform them of the keys and the circumstances.

  They will then issue a global block on the key (which can take a long time) which will result in any attempt to validate or activate any system with this key, which gives a non-genuine message on the desktop - it will NOT prevent the use of the system, and it will NOT stop the user both take steps to steal the data and/or reformatting/reinstall.

  Also note that the key on the COA sticker on the case of the machine is not normally the one in use,- and if the key OEM_SLP is still in use, MS can take no action at all, as thousands of others would be affected.

• When I used another key to activate the windows, what the key embedded on the motherboard.

  I bought a desktop lenovo Lenovo online - usa around 15/02/2015. the machine came with windows 7 pro. installed through windows downgrade rights 8 pro.

  but perhaps, I do not open/use the machine until 30/03/2015. After that, I have updated the system by installing updates provided/offered by windows updates.

  around 04/03/2015, when I open the computer properties, down to the title of the windows activation, there was this message "remaning 2 days to activate windows.» Activate now»

  When I click on activate now. Another dialogue box opens, indicating that the product key entered by me is not valid.

  I called mirosoft support, but perhaps, they refused to help me because I don't have the product key. (as long as no key is provided to me by lenovo, but only 8 pro windows recovery media.)

  I called lenovo support, but perhaps they also did not help me, according to them, it was a software problem, that only microsoft could solve.

  now, I had another death system (samsung) with windows 7 pro, so I used this product key to activate my windows on lenovo.

  My quiries are:

  1. what happens if God for bid, I want to restore my system to its factory state using the recovery partition or recovery media created by me, using backup and restore of lenovo.

  1. What is the status of my windows?

  1 b. Will he ask again the activation key?

  2. as I have downgrade rights to windows 8 pro, it is said that the product key is built-in on the motherboard. now when I used another key to activate the windows, what the key embedded on the motherboard.

  3. What is the best possible solution to this question, while I keep the original oem windows?

  is not - and never has been - responsibility of MS to pre-installed Windows help, a large part of the price of Windows is the support costs. Manufacturer have always had the responsibility to provide software support for the warranty period. Most interprets this as giving instructions on how to use the recovery media :(

  Yes, by using the recovery media should give your system its true status.  It will delete all data and programs, so go back to external media first!
