• Windows XP - key product badly entered in list, can I change because it will not validate?

  I recently had to wipe my machine XP. I reintalled but, she has two product keys from my piece of paper, I think that I entered that wrong because I tried to do a windows update and it said that my software would not validate. Can I change for the other product key of my piece of paper, or what I have to reinstall again!

  Hi TrivenaMcCarlie,

  You should not use the same product key that you used during the installation process to activate Windows.

  After the installation is complete, you need to activate the copy of Windows and you will not receive any Windows Update unless the copy of Windows is enabled.

• How to recover windows 8 key product when it comes preinstalled on a computer laptop toshiba

  I have a toshiba laptop with windows 8 pre-installed and for some reason, the operating system does not start, the indicated error is "[not] media control. I have not create the recovery disks. Is it possible to extract the product key from the BIOS? Help, please

  With Windows 8, Microsoft changed stickers that have the product key that the user must type in during the installation of the operating system of new embedded BIOS product key. The idea is that by eliminating the tile, you eliminate one of the easiest ways for nefarious users get a legitimate product key. The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

  If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 8 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.

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

  Oh my god. Very bad support of the Viet Nam from Microsoft.

  Hello

  Please keep us updated,

  As you mentioned that support staff has informed you that you can not activate your product key from your current location since your product was purchased from Dell XPS USA., which means that your product key is Geoblocked.

  The GeoBlock is a feature used by small businesses, which, for various reasons, want if ensure that their machines can still work - but do not have need for them to work outside of a specific geographical area. So in this case you will need to contact Microsoft Support for activation. See the link below for more information about the activation of your product:

• Qosmio X 300 - 15U - key product for Windows 7 upgrade disc

  Hi all
  first post here :)

  I have a Qosmio X 300 15U and just bought DVD update for the operating system: to Vista64 for Windows 7 (home premium).
  I got it by Toshiba Windows 7 upgrade site.

  I installed the upgrade and it works fine, so far.
  Only possible problem for the future, is that I can't find product key label Windows 7 attached to the case of paper (probably lost) DVD
  I have the DVD (for other series, almost...)

  Anyone know if it is possible to make the Toshiba support, send my old Windows 7 key product or a new (only in the case of reinstall...)
  It also appears that Microsoft has validated my install via their tool (WGA, I think)
  I have to go back to using MS (paid), for such a (simple, for me) case?
  Hope not.

  Thank you very much.

  Bye,.

  Diego

  I don't know if Toshiba can send you a new label productkey, you must call the assistance service. But to find your product, you need a key research tool.
  Try [link: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/productkeysactivation/tp/topkeyfinder.htm] for a list of these programs.

• need help to find the windows vista key

  need help to find windows vista key product I lost my kit, but I have windows vista cd/dvd. Please answer me as soon as posssible, thank you

  http://magicaljellybean.com/KeyFinder/

  Use the program above to find the product key in your operating system Vista running and active.

  If a desktop computer: Watch next or back.
  If a laptop: look on the underside.

  If a recovery disk, most of the manufacturer's recovery disks do not need a product key to get back to factory settings.

  This is the limit of the help that we can give you a missing product key.

  See you soon. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner

• Z240: Need Windows 7 activation product key

  I am running Linux on a workstation Z240. I want to use the Windows supplied with this workstation license to run Windows 7 on a virtual machine inside my host Linux OS. I have over the content of the original hard drive. Unlike a laptop, it doesn't seem to be a sticker indicating the product key of Windows that I need for activation. I read there may be a digital product key in the BIOS, but I searched the menus without finding.

  I wrote what I thought, it was the Windows product key before you erase the hard drive, but it turns out be the ID of the product instead.

  Any ideas?

  I'll answer my own question. It seems that with Windows 7, it can be done. Even if I take an activated Windows disk image and run it on a virtual machine, Windows 7 recognizes that the hardware has changed and that it is a non-active state.

  I also tried to save the key product for the BIOS and restore it on the copy of the VM, but activation does not always work.

• I need windows 8.1 product key for my Satellite C50-A483

  Hello

  I am trying to upgrade my windows 8.1 to win 10 (Toshiba Satellite C50-A483) and when I contact Microsoft they asked me about product key for my victory 8.1. I can't find.

  It s from integrated in my laptop from the factory.
  Where can I get the product key for my windows?
  I have another laptop (computer hp laptop)
  The product key is labeled in the back of my laptop

  For the original version of OS that you got with your laptop, you don't need key product for activation. Whenever you install original recovery image Windows is automatically activated.

  In the past product key label was placed on the bottom of the laptop. New model do not have it.
  Unfortunately you can not do more. Valid product key is part of the original image recovery only and cannot be used for any other activation.

• x 61-sticker key product replacement windows?

  I bought a thinkpad x 61 on eBay. There is a product key sticker on its underside, but there was also another key product in a CD cover. The thinkpad has W7 top so I think the sticker in the CD cover is for W7 and one on the bottom for an older version of Windows (XP, probably).

  I checked the validity of these two keys, and only the W7 worked. I got the XP sticker on the underside of the laptop. I don't think it's possible to get a sticker product key replacement for the W7 to stick on the thinkpad (that of the CD cover has seen better days)?

  Maybe I have waaaaaay too much time on my hands, but I'm just curious. I think that an email from begging at Lenovo could be the solution?

  ThinkPad X 61 has never been delivered with Windows 7. In addition, Lenovo provide replacement labels. If you really stickers for aesthetic reasons, I suggest eBay is your friend.

• When activating my windows vista ultimate product, I get the response that the license key is already in use, let me know how to solve this problem?

  When activating my windows vista ultimate product, I get the response that the license key is already in use, let me know how to solve this problem?

  KiranS Hello,

  Judging by your post, it seems that Microsoft had technical problems when you tried to activate your copy of Vista by phone. Have you tried phoning the line Activation again?

  The normal procedure is that if the activation fails through the automated system, the call is transferred to a real person. It is the only available option if you get the error 'use existing product key'.

  I can only suggest that you try again the activation by phone and see what happens.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

• The product key you entered will not work with this edition of Windows Vista. You must run the Windows Vista Setup program or enter a Windows Vista business product key

  Product key bad for the wrong version?

  Hello

  Recently the computer in business inherited from a friend, very fast and very good. Regardless of the operating system no - geniue, is with Vista Business, while the thumbnail of authentication is Vista Ultimate. I took a screenshot of what it says when I put Vista Ultimate product key: (it does not appear if you are unable to use it: P)

  http://S13.PostImage.org/57nfn5pqv/vistareg.jpg

  He said: "the product key you entered will not work with this edition of Windows Vista. You must run the Windows Vista Setup program or enter a Windows Vista Business product key."

  How would the installation of Windows Vista? My files would still be there when you need him? My drivers would still exist? No matter what to get deleted or become unusable? He would return to SP1? Any response is welcome.

  You can order form of the manufacturer's recovery media.

  The reason why the system as non-authentique shows currently is using a license in Volume KMS - these licenses must be re-activated at least every 6 months by connecting to the KMS user license activation server.

  It will require a reformat and reinstall whatever you do, unless you can connect to the KMS - Volume media server cannot be upgraded under normal conditions.
