Windows 8/8.1 Reset product key

• New HDD installed - Windows constantly asking for the product key

  HARD drive broke down, so I got a new HARD drive installed in the workshop for repairs a few months ago. Everything was fine until recently when Windows keeps always ask the product key to activate Windows. It is said that the license expires Dec. 27.
  Do you know where to find this key?

  If your laptop has Windows 8 or higher, Microsoft codes the license on the hard drive rather than put a sticker on the base. Sounds like the repair people could have used a dubious copy to reinstall it on the new hard drive. Microsoft may allow you to report it as pirate software, but I'm not sure they'll give you a free copy. The other alternative is to contact ToshIba to buy a complete set of recovery disks, or take it back to the shop.

  Hello

  You will need to purchase a license/disk/upgrade Windows 7 product key.

  Microsoft sells more Windows 7 and you would have to buy from Amazon, etc.

  There was a free upgrade offer, but it expired a long time ago:

  "The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program works on June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010. Some manufacturers may choose to shorten the time of upgrade Option. »

  There is no Vista SP3; SP2 has the latest Service Pack for Vista and will be the last.

  Before purchasing Windows 7, follow these steps:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  Windows 7 32 bit version product key - where can I get this (UK)?

  Product keys are not sold separately, "retail" versions of Windows are products in box with installation support 32 and 64 Bit and plastic a card inside the box that contains the key. Anyone who sells the right key is most like a crook.

  Since Microsoft stopped selling Windows 7 about 2 years ago, it is very unlikely, you can find media "Retail".

  OEM versions (which are related to the 1st computer they are installed / activated on and can not be moved / used on another computer) but may still be available.

• Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the bottom would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Original title: ASUS x501a Windows 7-8.

  Hi all

  I just registered here after having been a Microsoft user, since I started using computers, I think that when I started to use it is Windows XP haha, anyway.

  I'm running Windows 7 on the following specifications

  4 GB of Ram

  HARD DRIVE 300 GB

  Intel core i3 clocked at 2.6 GHz

  Intel HD 3000 graphics card

  and it's an Asus x501a comes with 7 not 8, so I've upgraded to Windows 8, then I found out, I removed my recovery partition. Oops.

  I know it's not a way to make it back, unless I did a copy of CD as I do not have.

  so, if I got a copy of my friends Windows 7 Home Premium, my product key on the lower part would work if I clicked on "change product key"?

  Thank you

  Jordan Doughty

  PS: Sorry for mistakes in my writing, I'm not used to a Macbook: P

  If your friend has a retail upgrade or full version and it corresponds to the edition of your PC, then Yes, you can use it.

• Windows 7 Home Premium invalid product key.

  Hi all!

  Hope you can help me out here. I have an old Dell Inspiron 1525 with 7 Home Premium.

  I had to do a repair reinstall because of virus issues, and every time I try to activate windows it says that my product key is not valid. I tried online with automated phone activation and with an agent of the customer on the line, nothing helps.

  I have the portable authentication certificate delivered with and I was wondering if there is information which could be used to verify my product, or is there anything else I can do to check this version of 7?

  Thanks in advance!

  Jacky

  Thanks for your help, everyone! In fact, I managed to get the product key to work when I tried again. No idea of what makes the difference, but it's great to have such a mass of knowledge here.

  Thanks again!

  No you don't need any Pkey for XP mode.

  Windows Virtual PC, a Windows 7 feature, gives you the ability to run multiple environments of Windows such as Windows XP Mode on your Windows 7 desktop.

  It's the best of both worlds: the new Windows XP Mode allows you to run Windows XP older right on your Windows 7 desktop business software.

  Designed primarily with small and medium-sized businesses in mind, Windows XP Mode comes as a separate download and works only with Windows 7 Professional, comprehensive and business.
