    Windows 7 Ultimate x64, product key invalid, key or install problem?


    Hi

    I have this Windows 7 Ultimate x64 install a while ago and I believe it has one of those product keys people posted online and I was told it will work as long as it keeps rearming. But now I've decided to properly buy a key (from ebay, since i was told microsoft not selling Windows 7 key anymore?). Tried using the key from the "Change product key" and getting the "product key does not appear to be valid" message. At first i thought they gave me a bad key, so they gave me another one to try and it still didn't work. Now they suggest me to reinstall it from their iso and try again. I'm trying not to reinstall this yet as this machine has a lot of things installed/configured already.

    So I'm just wondering is there anyway I can tell whether it is really this Windows install, or the keys are just bad (the guy selling fake keys)?

    MGADIAG output below, thanks.

    sounds like you been sold fake keys look like you been duped try to remove the your copy of windows isnt genunie error first there loads of methods to do it online search google to me if you installed a fresh install of windows over another copy already installed might be files still left behind to me you need to buy the proper disk with the key on the cover isos downloaded and keys brought online isnt worth the hassle it looks like your key is for a different version it looks like the keys u brought have been used on a pirate forum somewhere else or someone using a tool to generate a windows key and it to me it happens to be one ofr yours you brought??

    Welcome to our forum tdlemon1900.

    Sorry bad news.
    Your key
    Windows Product Key: *****-*****-*****-*****-3MBMV is a default key and will never activate properly.

    You need a proper install of Windows 7 and a legal proper activation COA key.

    I understand that the -3MBMV one is a bad key. What I'm not sure is whether the key I bought are valid or not. Or are you saying since this Windows 7 install already has a bad key, I cannot change the key by using a valid key? Thanks.

    Thanks. That's handy. I've checked the keys given by the seller, and they are all "Valid" according to this PID checker. So does that mean there is a problem with my Windows 7 install, and the only solution is to reinstall it without using a bad key to start with? Thanks.

    Seems that way. I suppose you could try a repair install.

    Do you have install media? Form your first post, it seems you do.

    If you want to try repair install, run setup.exe from your booted windows.
    Setup.exe is in the sources folder of the install media. You can run it from dvd/usb/or just mount the iso if you have an isohandler.

    Alternatively, you can install to a different partition and see if that works out.

    Right. So is there no way to unset my current invalid product key?

    Hard to tell what is wrong with your current install remotely.

    You could have completed the repair install long ago.
