| | Digitally Signed Drivers with Recovery I am trying to use my recovery disks after installing a new hard drive. I keep getting these messages saying my drivers aren't digitally signed. Not sure how to fix this! Maybe corrupted recovery disks? |

| | Hi Karen - If you can't access Advanced Boot Options to try Brian's idea, then consider getting a superior Clean Reinstall of just Windows 7 without the OEM bloatware and useless factory utilties with better versions built into Windows 7. The steps are here: Clean Reinstall Windows 7 Factory OEM |

| | Double check the licensed version which is printed on the COA sticker. Is that exactly what you installed? Double check at Control Panel>System. If so, most often the problem when the key is refused is misreading from the COA sticker or mistyping a Product Key character. Triple check the key, then try again. Most times if this is the first clean reinstall it will require a robocall to MS to trade numbers. It will always work, eventuallly. |

| | I can't find the COA sticker but went to Speccy and got the info from there. Got a message saying that is a default key and can't be used to activate. Guess I need to try something else? Last edited by CowgirlKaren; 11 Mar 2012 at 02:16 PM.. |

| | As stated in the steps I gave you you need to use Product Key on COA sticker which legally must be on any machine in order for Windows to be preinstalled upon it. The key scanned from HD is the factory mass activation key which cannot be used for activating a clean reinstall. Check your computer on all sides for a COA sticker like this. On notebooks it is on bottom or under battery:  You would need to use the Factory Recovery disks if there is no COA sticker, but if you have to order them you should ask your OEM why there is no sticker and report it to MS Customer Service since it is not a legal preinstall of Windows 7. |
