  • Windows can not be activated

    Dear Microsoft,

    I recently bought a new hard drive to my PC, because the last of them has been corrupted. Now, I can't activate windows vista starter edition, after installing it.

    I posted a question about it on the forum earlier and told me that it was because the hardware ID has changed. I also received instructions on how I can turn it back on windows again.

    But when I go along the procedure and you try to activate windows by phone, the number, I get an Indian number that I can't seem to contact. My local telecommunication service says that this number is not in use.

    The number from the activation - + 91 08 40103000 service

    Please let me know what I can do to activate windows again.

    Hello

    you reply to a thread of 2009

    in these forums, you start your own question/thread

    and if you had contacted Acer they would have sent you a recovery disk to reinstall vista for a nominal cost of $

    and if they only gave you a recovery disk when you bought it you would have had a hidden on your hard Bank restore partition

    you press Alt + F10 at startup to start this process of recovery on an Acer

    And you could upgrade Vista Home Basic to Home Premium or Ultimate Vista without losing data

    all you had to do was to uninstall a service pack, if necessary, if the installed service pack level was higher than what was on the disk, and then upgrade

  • Windows 7 Pro upgrade Activation issue.

    Windows 7 Pro upgrade Activation issue. I bought a real upgrade of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. In reading, there is no way I could actually update my current installation of XP and keep all the settings, I decided to just reformat my hard drive and install windows 7 as a custom install fees. Now, I can't activate Windows 7 because it claims that I do not have a version of windows installed on this hard drive. Is it possible (armed with my XP and Windows 7 product keys) I can activate my software? Or should I go through the hassle to format my drive again, stick XP on it simply to crush it with Windows 7 so I can activate it? Feels like a bit of an oversight for XP to 7 plants of valuation. Thanks for any help you can offer!

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

  • Windows can not activate at this time, try to activate Windows later.

    I bought my laptop 2 months ago and activated windows when I started it upward. Last week, however, for some unknown reason my laptop won't start properly so I had to do a restore to an earlier date. This good all worked but every time I start up it takes me to the screen of the PC settings and tells me to activate windows. When I click on activate "control key" text flashes for a split second, then disappears, nothing happens and it says above "Windows can not activate at this time, try to activate Windows later. If the problem persists, contact Microsoft and online support to activate Windows. "It is incredibly boring because all the days Windows spends half an hour to start the download of updates only so he can fail and take half an hour to undo the changes." My laptop came with Windows 8, so I have not updated. I know my activation key but have nowhere to enter the PC changes screen. I also tried to run the slmgr.vbs-ipk command prompt - followed my unsuccessful activation key, I get error 0 x 80070426. When I go to the Control Panel, system and security, Center of the action, activation of windows and click on activate since there I get error 0xC0000022

  • New on Satellite Pro 6100 WLAN card installed, but can not be activated

    Hi, just replaced the internal Wireless LAN card on my laptop Satellite Pro 6100. Map of yesterday and today have the same problem: I can't turn them on. They are installed properly and supposed to run in what concerns the XP drivers, but does not detect wireless network andy saying it is "disabled".

    I tried upgrading to the latest version of BIOS
    I reinstalled the latest drivers
    Toshiba network device switch sees only the Intel Pro/100 VE wired, network card, but not the card the Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG.
    Direct activation of the Wireles does not produce a said connection disable, enable, trying to connect, but it fails, as if he did not see the network.

    Past and present, wireless card fail to see any network.

    Martin

    Hello Martin

    This model of laptop is quite old and at that time 2200 card was not on the market. I can imagine that there is a compatibility issue.

    I think for older models of laptops, the best solution is the use of a faster but external solution in the form of PCMCIA or USB WLAN card. With the help of these cards you will not have compatibility issues.
    What do you think of this?

  • After replacing my motherboard in my HP system, Windows will not be activated.

    I have a hp motherboard went blewy, when I reinstalled another motherboard with all the same stuff he told me that I had to activate windows, wouldn't let me open a session and can not get telephone service to make his case either, it's hp that came with it installed and worked upward until the MB went up in smoke... can you please help?

    Hello

    The system is HP, and very probably the OS is OEM. As the motherboard has been replaced the operating system sees this as a new system. You will need to buy a new copy of Windows or contact HP for the media.
