Product key not valid on installing.
Hello,
On hindsight this is not as simple as I first thought so bear with me....
Originally I bought Windows 7 Ultimate at a reduced price for pre-order even thouggh I knew at the time I didn't have a machine to run it.
I recently acquired a nice machine from a friend with SSD's and as I recently found the windows 7 by accident looking for something else I tought I'd use it, beleiving it to of not yet been installed and it came up key not valid.
Thinking about things before writing this post I seem to remember a few years ago before I lost my job, I upgraded one of my machines and I believe I may of installed win 7. The machine broke down after a few months when the motherboard and a couple of other bits went blink and having lost my job due to an acquired disability, I was down both mentally and financially, and remem ber dismantling the machine in about 10 seconds flat !!!!
So at best Windows 7 Ultimate with my product ID has not been loaded on a working machine for at least a few years and currently there is no known machine with it on, i am using Vista.....
I still havent worked due to disability and money is even tighter and I cannot afford windows 7 or a licence and I 'd really like to use it.
i cannot phone anyone due to deafness, i have been onto Microsoft but kept getting sent to the USA site then they would say they cannot help with a UK product and so I have gone round and round circles till i come here....
It used to be very much easier to fix an invalid key problem....any one help ??????
