Windows 7 product key not recognized by windows
I have the HP dv6-3122us laptop with windows 7 Home premium preinstalled with Office Starter 2010 reason for all the problems of the system listed in convenience stores, that I ended up having to restore the default values. Would not install until through a guru on this forum post, I could finally restore from disk by removing the battery. I don't know what happened but when finally restored the hard drive used 57 GB of my drive and shows not all disks on my laptop. It shows a lot of files when pulled upwards, but originally before the resstore, there were only about 8 GB used. My other problem is that it asks my product key to activate windows and does not recognize the one I provided with the PC says that I might have to buy another key. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated! Also my guarantee for the PC is no longer valid. Micorsoft says to contact the manufacturer, the manufacturer says to contact Microsoft. All diagnostics say there is nothing wrong, but OH YES it is!

It won't work because the product key has been for an OEM different to install your trying to install a retail business instead of OEM product key which will not work. That's why your do pass this message. What version of Windows you are trying to re - install? When you reinstalled you wipe the HARD drive and the partition hidden as well? Maybe when you reinstall again to install the Windows 7 home premium and who should install. Put it this way you have Home Premium and no future install disc you use will have to be Home Premium to use the product key that is located on the sticker on your laptop. You do not get to use the product key for Windows 7 Ultimate version, it works that way or or she will let you.

Hello
You can use this Recovery Partition to reinstall Vista to his new condition with the right edition of Vista.
This recovery partition was photographed on your hard drive by HP during the manufacturing of the factory.
You press F11 on startup to start the process of recovering back to factory settings.
Here is the information about HP.
http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?DocName=c00809678&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&product=18703
If the recovery partition is damaged, you can buy HP's Vista recovery discs for a small fee.
If HP's Vista recovery disks, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

Follow the zig - zag. If there are drivers available, here's how you can get the Windows 7 installation media.
Note: This site works often hurts when you enter a product key, bad language is one of the questions. You can also receive a notice to connect with the manufacturing of PC if you have a key OEM supplied with your computer, but it can't hurt to try.
Please read the following information below is one possible solution.
* Edition
More information and alternative resources:
If you have a friend with a version of "Retail" (Full or upgrade media, only in the media that you don't need their key) of the installation DVD (should be the same as your key was for: Home Premium, professional or Ultimate) it will work with your "Retail" or "OEM" product key, if you need to reinstall or repair Windows.

A Windows XP product key will be recognized to activate one installation of Windows 7 Professional
A Windows XP product key will be recognized to activate one installation of Windows 7 Professional
Windows 7 uses own unique product key, Windows XP product key can activate Windows XP.
You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package specifically designed for reconditioned PCs cost only $ 50 for a 64-bit copy.
There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed. (See "is allowed to use Windows OEM on your own PC? Don't ask Microsoft. »)

I bought a laptop computer with non-genuine windows 7. I have the original windows xp product key pro, etc. from the bottom of the laptop, but I do not have the windows xp pro cd. Help me, please!
You will need to either buy a version authentic retail Windows XP, with its key sales, to a true scource or visit the site of laptop manufacturers, support for your model and see what versions of win are taken care of, then buy a commercial version of this o/s.
The key on the base of the laptop is the recovery key that requires that the recovery disks provided by the manufacturer.
You could phone manufacturers to support to see if they have the origonal recovery cd send you, for which it maybe a small fee.

Cannot activate Windows, the product key already in use
Original title: product key already in use.
Recently, my computer crashed (power). Try to avoid problems with my hard drive, I bought the same computer exactly on the line. I installed my old hard drive on the newest computer and all is well... Except, when trying to activate my Windows Vista Ultimate OS I get the error message "The key of product already in use" Microsoft site confirms that the product key is authentic, but still will not let me activate. All solutions?
Your old computer had a "Retail" or "OEM" of Windows installed version?
OEM versions are related to the 1st motherboard they are installed and can not be activated on another motherboard. The only exception is the 'mother' is exactly the same make / model / part number as the original motherboard.
Commercial versions can be moved from one computer to another without problem except that the the phone activation may be required.

Is my Windows my product key license? Also, if I want to download the iso of Windows 7 yes I need to buy a license/product key of Windows 7? Or my Windows 10 will work?
Your license is the product key.
You don't need to buy a license if you already have a product key.
Step 1: Download a copy of Windows 7:
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:
How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?
Make sure you scroll down and read the section:
What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?
Step 2: Perform a custom installation, see Windows 7 section of the following article how to perform a custom installation:
