Windows Home Premium Activation accepting not product key
I recently met a problem on one of my kids computers that I can't fix. I have recently reinstalled Windows Vista on this computer, I did because I bought Zoo Tycoon Ultimate Collection (a game of Microsoft), and it has simply refused to work on this computer. I finally cracked and re-installed Windows Vista (you can read the entire saga here)http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistagaming/thread/9ae7f7e3-eb92-4a36-9095-fe16f5a8ce38/#9284ac2b-a853-4366-bed6-e725de40347d. As my child was cheerfully playing Zoo Tycoon and his other games, things be deleriously happy for a fortnight.
Today, however, the computer started and indicated that Vista should be activated. I have several legit don't produce key for Vista, but none of them are accepted. The only options I'm offered are to enter a new product key, to buy a product key or ask Microsoft for help.
I tried to re - install Windows Vista from the CD but I received a message saying that I need to install Vista from the current operating system, but of course when I start now it goes directly to the registration form.
Any help would be appreciated, I literally installed Vista five times on this computer in order to get Zoo Tycoon to work and Im staggered by my inability to operate and the challenges, I continue to turn in (I could easily write a book on what not to do at this point).
"Haggisdog" wrote in message News: b057e82c-6fa0-48cb-b526-555907daae84...Yes, I read that... I think that what I did (which I'm discovering is quite hard to fix), is that I used the OEM of Windows Vista version which was another of my computers... now I can not beyond screen recording and when I use my Windows retail version that I bought it says I have to install it from windows... Here is the information of the MGA tool:

I have purchases product code for Vista Home Premium. I couldn't find the disk, so I installed Vista Basic. Microsoft does not authorize the premium code to record the "basic" program How can I get the two to work together on my machine? MS will not let me get the program of upgrading without registering to the basic version... and on, and it will.
original title: update windowsHello
Microsoft is correct; you need the correct product key for each specific edition of Vista.
These information from Microsoft about replacing lost software should help you:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
Then you can install it properly.
See you soon.
PS If you use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.
Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit editions different DVD lights.

Upgrade Vista Basic Vista Home Premium with the old product key.
When I bought my laptop, it came with Vista Home Premium installed. I had to wipe my HD and reinstalled Vista using the diskette provided me by Dell, but the version they gave me was Vista Home Basic. Is there a way to upgrade to Home Premium with pay them for it because I bought the license when I first bought my computer?
Contact Dell on them giving you the wrong recovery disk...
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

Windows XP Setup will not accept my product key
I am re-installing ona XP laptop, but the installation of Windows XP will not accept my product key. I have an OEM of a Dell PC product key that is no longer functional, and a update product key which is not null else, neither of which works.
I can't even do the installation to achieve the activation step.
Link to the entire conversation:Huh?- You have a Dell system, and with this Dell, you have a product key for Windows XP (edition?) - it would be an OEM key be used with an OEM installation CD.
- You seemed to have bought (where?) a copy of "Retail" / license for Windows XP (edition?) - which would have its own retail product key to be used with a retail installation CD.
What does not work:- using the CD to retail with the product key OEM on Dell machine sticker
- by using the product key from retail with OEM installation media which might come with the Dell printer
- have an installation CD OEM with an edition of Windows XP (Home and Professional vs Media Center 2002 vs Media Center 2005, etc.) and you try to use the product key OEM for another edition of Windows XP (Home and Professional vs Media Center 2002 vs Media Center 2005, etc) (editions must match, House can is complicated in this grouping too.)
- have an installation CD retail with an edition of Windows XP (Home and Professional vs Media Center 2002 vs Media Center 2005, etc.) and you try to use the product key from retail sales to another edition of Windows XP (Home and Professional vs Media Center 2002 vs Media Center 2005, etc) (editions must match, House can is complicated in this grouping too.)
So is that what you are trying to do? Why did you buy the CD/product key for sale at retail and the editions correspond?If you're not at the point where you will have to enter the product key - why do you think that the product key is the question? Hah
