• Reinstalling with the product key lost

  Hello

  I laid off work XP Pro. A week ago I replaced my nvidia graphics card NVIDIA 6200-5200. After that, it runs a lot slower. He was never fast anyway because the entire computer is quite old.

  I decicded however, it's time to give the final reincarnation of the operating system, i.e. re - install Windows. This also goes to prove, that the new map is not a question of the speed degradation.

  I can't find my original instalation CD (no product key).

  The question is, if I make a copy of the wpa.dbl and wpa.bak and make re-setup with any XP - pro (same language) and with a product key took on the internet... so I'll be able to activate my system using these files copied from the wpa (everything remain the same)?

  Thanks in advance

• I can't reinstall with only a serial number, I can?

  I bought a MacBook Pro with the suite Adobe Design Premium about 3.5 years ago. If the memories are good, it came with the software already installed and with none of the discs from Adobe. After a series of repairs, I tried several times to find a way to reinstall Adobe products with only the external hard drive that I used for Time Machine backups. But I always failed. And now the external hard drive does not have too. So I think that I have only the serial number. Can I ever recover the Adobe products I bought with this laptop?

  You will need to talk to the seller to get the software, if they are the ones that originally he you provided.  If you have the order number, you may be able to download the demo version of the software through the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

  Don't forget to follow the steps described in the Note: very important Instructions in the section on the pages of this site download and have cookies turned on in your browser, otherwise the download will not work correctly.

  Hi jesse,.

• Creating a device with only one key Windows 8 start?

  I recently bought a new HARD drive for my laptop and my original hard drive went too well to get an ISO out of it. My other computers are Windows 7, and I do not have a backup. I found this:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

  but it's only for the upgrade of the computer you are using. I thought I saw a boot for 8.1 media where you just need the key, but I can't find anything for Windows 8. Help, please! I don't want to buy a new copy, when I have my key :(

  Hello

  The site offers 8 and 8.1... I don't think that you have to install...

  Run through the process, you will be able to create one or Flash Drive, DVD, record an ISO (better idea)... It can be converted into anything...

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

  I don't think that it will work with OEM pre-installed Windows...

  Is there another link to download Win 8.1 which requires no key until it is installed.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  Depending on your installation, you may need a temporary license key to win 8.1, then after installation you can enable it with the key Win 8...

• How does the OEM? Can I use an OEM disc with a product key, I already have?

  So I just bought a laptop preloaded with Windows 7 32 bit. I would like to install clean with win7 64-bit, but I don't have an installation disc and I can't find one online that is not cracked which leads me to the conclusion to go out and buy the thing. So the question is: if I'm going out and buying an OEM version, can I use it to clean install, using my previous product code provided with my laptop? Or is the OEM software and key, it comes with a part of the binding process which binds to a machine? Any info would be much appreciated. ~ Vince

  If you buy the exact same OEM version as your current license (Windows 7 Home Premium - Windows 7 Home Premium) it will work.

  If you have difficulties to activate Windows 7 open the Windows Activation Wizard in Windows 7 to use the phone and activate Windows:
  During the Windows 7 installation at the entrance of your product keys page, do not enter your key and uncheck the "automatically activate when online.
  1. When you reach the desktop, click Start, then in the search box type: slui.exe 4
  2. press enter on your keyboard
  3. Select your country.
  4. Select the option to activate the phone, then call and hold to a real person.

  Difference between a full license and an OEM license
  Windows OEM licenses:
  are related to the first computer installed on and are non-transferable
  cannot make a room upgrade from older versions of Windows
  do not offer any free support from Microsoft
  allow the hardware upgrades of all components except for the motherboard (unless, of course, because the card mother original becomes defective)

• Windows 7 Home Premium - what is - this OA in the license tag? Is it possible to install the OS [Home premium] 64-bit with the same key?

  1 What is OA in the license tag
  2. is it possible to install the OS [Home premium] 64-bit with the same key.

  Hi adil13,

  Adding to reply TrekDozer,

  1 original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Activation is also known under the name of OA. It's basically OEM activation of basic input/output system (BIOS) - which means that they have already activated and you don't need to enter the key and activate yourself.

  2. you will only be able to activate a copy of Windows 7 with the number of product key used for 64-bit or 32-bit version at the same time, not both. It will allow only a copy installed with him to be activated. If you try to do it on both versions 32/64-bit, you will probably get the message that your product key is already in use or The Windows 7 product key you typed is invalid for activation .

  I hope this helps!

  Kind regards

  My father still has his Win 7 Home Premium Family Pack disc left, would that be a problem using it.

  Hi Peter,.

  Yes, you can use the same product key when reinstalling windows.

  Note: If you are facing a problem while activating, I recommend you contact the factory system since you are using an OEM computer.

• Pure install W7 Pro 64-bit and activate with a product key and license of W7 pro upgrade.

  As part of the upgrade of the hard drive in my laptop, I want to do a clean installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.  My current license is an upgrade to W7 Home Premium 64 bit I bought after getting the laptop (several years ago).

  Can I install the ISO Digital River Win7Pro64 I downloaded and activate it using my current license?

  Only if the Windows 7 Professional 64 bit license is an upgrade or full version, not an Express upgrade.

  If it is, then Yes, you can download Windows 7 Professional 64 bit from Digital River and use it with your product key.

  If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

  How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

  Click Install now

  Accept the license agreement

  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Click on drive Options

  Select the disc/s click on Delete

  Click new

  Click on apply

  Click OK

  Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

  Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

  When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

  Click on properties

  Scroll down to the Windows Activation

  Click the link x days before activation.

  Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

  Enter the product key

  Click next

  Select the Activation of the phone

  Click Next when you enter your key page

  Select your country

  Click Next, call the number listed

  Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

  Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

  They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

  Click next to complete the activation.

  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.

  I have upgraded to Windows 8 windows 7 using the upgrade wizard. I corrected my key and had to go back to windows 7. When I use the wizard tool upgrafe is said that my upgrade key is not able to be used to install Windows 8. How can I reinstall windows 8 with only my upgrade key?
