Windows 7 Ultimate Activation!

[Shawn12]

Interesting of all the important updates that are due (47) that is the only one that is unticked. Im a bit wary of installing all the important updates as last time i did this upon restart i couldn't get into the login page the screen went just plain black?

how does the layman run sfc/scannow? start run sfc does not load up anything. Aside the specific installation you give, I am also a bit wary of installing all the updates windows recommends as last time i did this upon restart i could not login...the screen was just plain black.

Thanks all for your help

filemismatches now disappeared having installed update you suggested as shown below. sfc/scannow was all ok nothing to report here. MS still blocking product key activation?

Well, it would seem Microsoft does not like the hash that key is creating. You should be able to get confirmation from them whether or not the key you're using is blacklisted if you call and explicitly request it. Unfortunately, that is what seems to be happening if a retail copy is no longer activating. If you have the COA, discs, and retail packaging, you can request another key if they cannot assist you with this one. You should be able to get that from them at the least if this is indeed a legit copy of Windows.

 

[BadHairSpray]

unless I m mistaken...doesn't the product ID ..067... indicate a MSDN key? I recall reading it somewhere in a MS Forum....couldn't direct you to it unfortunately as can't remember the exact site. Probably explains why its showing as blocked

 

[Outlander]

I have seen that too......065-067 or some such are the keys you never update and do not touch unless you want headaches.....

 

[Tews]

To check your PID press the win key and pause at the same time, or open system properties through the control panel, scroll down to activation section and look at the PID It will look something like this 12345-067-1234567-54321, the portion you are interested in is the three digit section, if it matches or is within one or two digits of the examples below you probably have an MSDN key.

065, 066, 067 for Ultimate, 220 area for Pro and the 230, 231 area for premium, there are probably others but they should be close to those posted

You may have been sold a TechNet key according to the PID. This is highly illegal and needs to be taken to eBay and their "trusted" seller, regardless of how much time has passed.

Either ebay is selling pirate MSDN copies of Win7 or they're not. If they're keeping a "trusted seller" who is doing so then they are abetting a theft. It needs to be aired and resolved.

Let us know what happens going forward.

 

[Shawn12]

yes its 067..im gutted. does that mean its a technet key or msdn i dont know the difference? tried to get a refund from the seller but as expected no reply. I bought it on a buy it now not auction. i will get onto ebay now.

Thanks for the help
Shawn

 

[Tews]

More than likely it is a TechNet key, but its hard to say whether its a TechNet key, or an MSDN key.. I have a TechNet key and its 066 ... Good luck with getting any help from ebay though..

 

[Shawn12]

ebay uk closed on new years eve and as mon is a bank holiday will probably not be open until tuesday. Ill get back to you on the outcome then

Shawn

 

[Shawn12]

is the layman really expected to look up on product id's before purchasing i didn't have a clue about all this until now. I saw the COA sealed as the MS website instructs you to look out for but still this didnt help me in accidentally purchasing a 'pirate' copy.

Shawn

 

[Tews]

The best answer is ... if a deal looks too good to be true, it usually is.... Caveat Emptor..

 

[Shawn12]

£90 is still alot of money. COA sealed obviously means you can't buy a windows 7 product in confidence then.

 

[Tews]

The best solution is to purchase your OS from Microsoft or an authorized reseller, preferably a store where you can go to if a problem arises ...
