• V.2002 of MS Windows XP Pro SP2 OEM from Newegg in 2006 would not agree on shrinkwrap product key during installation

  I bought v.2002 of MS Windows XP Pro SP2 OEM from Newegg in 2006.  She would never accept the product key during the installation on his blister.  To complete the installation, I used a different key of a second OEM disk, and it worked.  It's been a while since I installed XP; but I was working on this computer lately and realized I never knew why the CD has had this problem or how to fix it.  I have 3 questions.  #1: the key on the blister does not match the key in "unattended installation. TXT "; is this normal?  #2: the key in "unattended installation. TXT doesn't work anymore.  #3.   Any ideas on this subject?  Thank you, Jeff.

  The only thing I can think is that you were consistantly entered a bad key - it's almost unknown fo that there is to be a wrong key on the label and it is much more likely to be a case of misreading of the key, which is not easily read in the best of light (which is why I often use a torch and a magnifying glass).

  I guess it's vaguely possible that this is a substituted forgery (some thieves employee pirateshave shoplifter and employees take to counterfeit and bring out the true copies).

  I'm surprised that the other has worked, if it had already been installed on another PC - they are locked for the life of the first motherboard on which they are enabled.

  The key in the file 'unattend.txt' is a dummy - it cannot be enabled and is not normally get used except in the OPK.

• Windows XP Pro SP3, OEM in Dell D600 "not responding" on every article, every time, all the windows

  My DELL D600 has OEM Windows XP Pro SP3, and netframeworks all or almost suddenly started not ANSWER DO NOT each time. I don't know what went wrong, it's driving me crazy. I can't afford to upgrade.

  I tried the fixit from Microsoft online, no luck.

  I uninstalled a few programs, perhaps thinking it's too full. Still no luck.

  Whenever I use any folder window, or any element of the queue at all, the same thing happens, every time. "Not responding" delays on the window or the desktop contains the item. Must hit Ctl + Alt + Delete at least twice, if not 3 - 4 times.  Each 'entry' lasts for a number of at least 26 and often much longer.  Basically, Windows is not very functional.

  I have two OEM for Dell, not sure that I put here (I was wondering if I should repair-installation Windows), but worried to destroy my Office Server installations that have 3 WordPress developments.  I can't afford to destroy the.

  Any ideas to FIX this would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Good, minor success.

  The returned quickly file number, but a re - check with Roguefix showed, it was not clear, no change in System.

  I therefore decided to start uninstalling things, hoping to uninstall accidentally the culprit.

  First I stripped all the netframeworks and the SPs.  Has failed, file number remained.

  I then started to uninstall programs. After uninstalling programs a half-dozen, suddenly THE FILES ARE WORKING AGAIN!  Don't ask me why.

  Then, I rebuilt my netframeworks and SPs.

  Then, I clicked to access Microsoft Updater to get up to speed.

  IT WILL NOT BE UPDATED.  Failed! is what I get.  It says the software needed TO be updated is not in my HD and offer a download. When I try to download and install failed!  It will be not even installed that.

  This goes back to the same "cause" - for reasons unknown the last 4-6 weeks, installing any updates in my DELL D600 Windows XP Pro OEM.  Initially, they install.  Then begins the phase were some updates installed, others down without reason.

  Then, no updates would be installed.  That was BEFORE I plucked executives trying to solve the issue of records.

  It is not even asking me to install the real test happened before, I think that.  I think it was in August 2013 or almost.

  I'm desperate to get the updates, if you have an idea on how to help me.

  Thank you.

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.
  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.
  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

• Windows XP Pro SP3 lost CDROM

  Hello. Not sure if this is the right place for the post, but im pulling my hair out.

  I got a copy of Windows XP PRO SP3 OEM for awhile. The installation disc is damaged and was unusable. I have a legitimate product key which is connected to the computer.

  Is there anywhere I can buy or order a replacement CD-ROM.

  I can't find a copy of this disc anywhere. On the COA, proof of license number is x 14-01711. I looked up and down and still no luck.

  I got a Windows XP Pro SP3 .sdc, but the license key is not accepted during the installation.

  Thanks for your time.

• EliteBook 2570p: Windows 7 Pro OEM activation error after reinstall onto the new HARD drive

  Greetings!

  I had to replace my laptop HARD drive and then clean installed windows iso downloads, burned on a dvd.

  I first tried Windows 10 (build 1511), then Windows 7 Pro 64 bit with SP1. Or activate using the key OEM COA sticker.

  I tried MS activation of phone also, but they said that they could not generate a confirmation key. They tried to transfer me to "get windows up and running support" but could not get through.

  The first activation says invalid key without being connected to the internet, which makes me wonder if there is an inconsistency between my product key and SLIC data, (which I do not have much understanding).

  The service 'Ask Tech' at Microsoft tried to sell me a license at a high cost, which I don't think I should need because I have the license OEM Windows 10 retail.

  I don't have HP recovery disks (and did not expect to need).

  Any advice would be welcome!

  The problem is that you should NOT use Win7 ISO downloads to reinstall your PC.  Given that your PC came with a preinstalled HP Win7 OEM version, and is NOT available for download, I have to assume that what you used to reinstall a retail version.

  And the problem is that the commercial version only lights up with a retail key.  The product key that came with your PC and is printed on the COA sticker, is a key to OEM HP product - and that cannot be used to activate any other than the version from HP OEM version of Win7.

  Your best bet at this point, is to restore your PC using HP recovery media - and then perform the upgrade of Win10 after that.

  It is a DVD and CD set that will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs.  You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.
  
  You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers
  
  Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update".  If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entty and click on order to press for more details.
  
  Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:
  
  If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
  
  If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
  
  Note that if HP no longer provides a recovery media for your model, a few other sites, you can check are: http://www.computersurgeons.com/ and http://www.restoredisks.com/
  
  Good luck

• HP ENVY m6 1158ca: Windows 8 Pro Setup own activation fails 0xC004C003 blocked by OEM product key

  My hard drive died on my HP ENVY m6 1158ca.  I replaced and ran 6 discs recovery I created for my daughter and

  After the last completed album, I hit continue to do construction and each time after several reboots (ready devices... Prepares... ... Software administrator is installed) it would get the BSOD - 0xc000000f - a required device is not connected or not available.  SO I format the disk of 1 TB and do Factory reset again, and it still fails in the same way.

  After failing on several occasions, I've used a Windows DVD Pro 8 for another HP laptop and Windows 8 coming!

  However, the activation of Windows 8 needs a key I guess that the BIOS it will not work.

  Call Microsoft by using the "activate Windows by phone" gave rise to the statement "you must call OEM.

  to get a key and then call us back and then we can help you"

  The HP ENVY is out of warranty, who do I contact to get this key on the BIOS?  or the BIOS button does not work

  because the Windows 8 Pro does not correspond to something?  The laptop came originally with Windows 8.

  Thanks in advance for any help,

  Hi @ml88,

  Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  The product key that is embedded in the BIOS may not work with the version of Windows 8 Pro.

  Here is a document HP-HP System Recovery troubleshooting (Windows 8) computers you can review. It can help restore the system from the recovery disks.

  If you need to get the recovery media:

  HP computers - get HP recovery disks or HP USB recovery disc

  Let me know how it goes.

• Need to download & install a new copy of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit for strongly modified pc OEM

  Original of the hard drive has crashed, please download & install a new copy of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on new SSD. I updated day/has replaced most of the OEM parts to 4 + years except for the motherboard, power supply, & tour. I don't have the old parts, sort of recovery disk installs not successfully because of all the improvements. Have drivers for devices newer than all existing parts on a USB ready when necessary. OEM is telling me to go up the PC with its original components to make it work, and I really don't need all the unnecessary software OEM includes in their recovery disk. Microsoft Download site does not allow me to download from a pc OEM product key. How to solve this? I'm always in the respect of the Windows license agreement, so I don't have to pay for it.  Please advise, thank you

• The upgrade of Windows 7 Pro OEM of Windows 7 Ultimate retail

  My PC is custom built and delivered with Windows 7 Pro OEM installed.  I want to install Windows 7 Ultimate in order to obtain several language and BitLocker.  I know that in a few months, I'll change this PC motherboard (motherboard).

  I know that with the OEM, the product key of Windows 7 license is attached to the motherboard.  So when I change, Win 7 Pro license will be lost.  Since I want to be able to transfer the license of Windows 7 to one MOBO to another, I bought a full commercial version of ultimate.

  My question is this.  To upgrade the Pro OEM ultimate retail, it's just a matter of changing the product key on the screen of the system property and the new product key will launch the installation of missing features to Windows 7 Pro?

  You must use Anytime Upgrade.

  Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, follow the on-screen Wizard, enter the key of Windows 7 ultimate on demand, click on, and then restart your computer when you are prompted. Less than 10 minutes, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and your files and settings retained.
