• Windows key does not work (not valid)

  I have an old installation of Windows XP Professional I need to recharge.  I have a borrowed the CD for Windows XP Professional with SP3 slipstreamed into it.  I got the Windows key, I used on the computer, and it corresponds to the original key that I recorded a long time ago.

  When I reload Windows, it indicates that the key is not valid, even if it is the same key that originally came with the computer.  The original disks are long gone, reloading those is not an option.

  How can I reload Windows XP using my valid (purchased) license from another CD?

  As I said - if there is a sticker on the computer and the operating system installed. OEM.

• had to install the new hard drive, windows key does not

  My hard drive died in my Inspiron 660. I ordered a new hard drive and a recovery Dell USB key. A recovery key for Windows 8 pro based on my recommended by Dell service tag. I installed the new drive and used the recovery key to install Windows 8 pro. I then used a third-party tool to get the product key from the BIOS. The product key does not work. I wonder if the product key on the BIOS isn't for Windows 8, Windows 8 pro. If so, the wrong recovery key recommended by Dell.

  What should I do to activate Windows successfully?

  Secondly, on my old drive hard, I had upgraded to Windows 10 while he was a free upgrade. How to bring back the free update?

  Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 TH1 and TH2 had problems installing specific edition. Your key can be a simple language edition or one with Bing edition and therefore rejected by the installation of the edition of bad media.

  Windows 10 TH2 and later all the windows 8.x and 7 OEM keys are treated as Windows 10 keys. Edition installation specific issues have been fixed with Windows 10 RS1. The file .iso Windows 10 RS1 image is covering several editions. It contains all OEM editions and will automatically collect a key Windows 8/8.1/10 UEFI BIOS OEM System Locked Preinstallation and automatically installs the correct edition of Windows 10:

  Hello

  -What is the number of brand and model of the computer?

  Flip your keyboard and shake gently. This will remove any buildup of debris which may prevent the keys work properly. You can also use compressed air to remove dust from hard to reach under the keys areas.

  Method 1: Check with another keyboard.

  Try a different keyboard on your computer. If it works well when you connect a different keyboard, the issue may be with the keyboard.

  Method 2: on the keyboard of the screen
  Check if the problem occurs while using the on-screen keyboard. It will help us to check if there is any problem with the keyboard.

• 'Windows key' does not not inside ubuntu VM

  I am running VMWare in Windows 7, and I have ubuntu 10.04, installed inside vmware. When I try to set my "Windows" key the "Display the menu of the main panel" function within the system-> Preferences-> keyboard shortcuts, it is not detect the key. I tried different types of keyboard setups in system-> Preferences-> keyboard, but nothing seems to make any difference.

  Is there a solution to this problem? Just a minor annoyance, but it would make the experience much better for me.

  Thanks in advance,

  Dan

  The question must be something of how VMWare communicates with the guest OS

  Since the key actually works in the host operating system and the windows (which probably has key

  Since 15 years..) Works for people using ubuntu as native operating system.

  1. your operating system (Windows) of the host and guest (Linux) work completely different when it comes to presses

  2. I'm using Linux as a host and I'm only able to assign the Windows key (no matter if it's in the home or in one of Linux guests) if I do not use as a modifier

  Thank you!

  You can't use a mac on windows key and you cannot use a key off a lapot broken to activate windows on a mac.  You need a valid windows key for your operating system.  What OS are you trying to install?  How are you trying to install?
