You must activate today

I have an oem product which is a hp pavilion dv9000 series laptop computer entertainment. I use vista and win7 on this computer that is configured to dual boot. I decided to start the installation of vista and once I was in I was asked then to activate my product. I might add that I had not used the product Vista for about two weeks and that this problem had occurred once before.  After talking to hp support technician, I was told to reinstall my operating system. My question is this, what could be causing this to? I had never had this problem before my two os on this computer. When I decide to try to activate, I received a message that read the product key you entered is not valid, come on... This is an OEM installation. My computer skills are good enough to where I can solve most of the problems, I had to deal with. Now, that being said, maybe you can explain to me what is causing this glitch before I reinstall my os. Most computers weather, it is an OEM product or one that was bought as a project at home using a purchased Windows installation disc, must be able to endure a time of system dual boot using cmd promt to configure the boot order or a third-party boot order design like Acronis without having this type of problem. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Donald Jones,

I get their hands on Microsoft the first time I had the problem, and their comeback was that some the same as yours except they said that HP had to help me it was an oem product and it was out of their hands. I say this, hp told me to reinstall my operating system which has worked so far. What he has done by reinstalling the system was reactivated as if it was installed for the first time. In any case, thanks for your comments.

    I just bought an Acer Aspire with Windows 8 on it. Everything set up well and works fine, but I wanted to remove the password lock screen. Should be good enough, but every time in the setting menu when I click on "lock screen" so I can go and turn the password off the coast it is said "you must first activate Windows" then I'm going to "activate Windows" in the main configuration menu and click on it. He said: "You are activated" without any options to do something. So I will return to the lock screen, and he always says that I need to activate windows. Anyone has any idea why? Everything is enabled and works fine?

    You press F11 on startup to start the process of recovering back to factory settings.

    Here is the information about HP.

    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.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Torch 9810 - Docs to go Sync - Drag and drop? You must be kidding me.

    I tried to solve how to automatically synchronize the office files of files of devices for a few days. Pre-9810 (a 9800), I was able to launch a desktop version of Docs to Go and * automatically * synchronization with the device and vice versa.

    After several calls/skins with AT & T (we can not help you), a few emails with DataViz (RIM has reached version BB in seven 2010; it is not our) and 2 today called the hoop (90 minutes in total), the solution - & glide. You must be kidding me.

    And RIM wants to continue to be a business phone? I have almost 100 regularly synchronized requiring customer files. Now, I see the stamp date & time on * both * the device and my office instead of click Synchronize button as I ready myself to go out and meet with clients. Can you tell us, 'waste of time' or 'non-productive '? I knew you could (/ obscure Mr. Rogers).

    RIM markets itself to a lot of things in what concerns the business community. As a businessman for 30 years, I find that this last "step-back" is absurd.

    I know that there is a new version of the OS 7. I would * hope * that RIM is developing a new version of office compatible w/OS 7. I have NO problem to pay for it, when and if it becomes available. Heck, I'd be a beta user!

    If that was the position of the RIM, I will strongly consider an iPhone. I love the 9810. Great phone. The only advantage for BB now is push email. I'm going to eat the cost of a switch, because the sum of $ spent (including passage of AT & T to Verizon) will be re-cut several times on the savings in my "time" and less aggravation.

    Can RIM - you hear me now?

    And your point? I * know * this is not a RIM site. I will continue...

    The DVD is encoded for a different region. Most DVD readers only works with DVDs that are coded for the computer was purchased in the same region. So if you buy a DVD in one country and then try to play on one computer from another country this DVD could not play.

  • Purchased a product key for Windows 7 Professional, but you must enter a different product key activation

    My laptop came with a Windows 7 Basic program trial and the trial ended so I bought a product key for Windows 7 Professional, because I got a discount on that student. When I try to activate it, it says I need to enter the product key for what I already use but I don't know the key to it. What am I doing here? Do I have to buy a product key for my Windows 7 original also?

    Is the Windows 7 Professional a full, level or Express upgrade?

    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

    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.
