What Number Can Call For Microsoft's Product Activation By Phone For Windows 7
Feb 18, 2012
I switched out motherboards. MS no longer recognizes my key as valid. I've been looking for a phone number for product activation but I haven't been able to find one.
that will farward an incoming phone call to another number. I guess I'd need two phone lines (One for the incoming call and one for the outgoing call) which would be no problem. My phone company offers farwarding but I need to log and record all the calls and so I actually need the calls to be routed via a PC in my office.
I'm having trouble getting the Phone Dialler to do what I want it to. I'm trying to get it to prefix all UK mobile numbers (i.e. numbers beginning 07) with the access code 18185. My latest attempt is to save the number in Outlook Contacts in the format (07) 970 111231, and to create a dialler rule for "area code" 07 which dials 18185 plus the area code. This seems to be dialling the access code correctly since it's going to the right service provider, but the service provider is then telling me that the number dialled is incorrect. If I dial the number manually (i.e. if I dial 1818507970111231) then it works fine.How do I tell exactly what Windows Dialler is dialling? Is there a log file of similar?
I'm having trouble finding Microsoft windows 7 support number in the uk.I have had a look on the box and only gives me numbers to us & Canada.I have Also had a look on the installation cd as well not I have had a look on the Internet and can only find Xbox support cant find Microsoft's number anywhere.
I recently received a call from an Unknown number. The person was claiming that he was from Windows Technical Team. I don't know from where did he get my phone number and email address.He told me that my computer is affected with Malware and suspicious viruses. He told me to check the following folder in "Computer Management" window: EventViewer->WindowsLogs->Applications.There I see lot of red color errors icon listed and he told me that my personal information is going out of my computer online,like my passwords, documents etc.
Bought Call of Duty World at War on steam a few days ago and have been having a lot of trouble trying to play. The game crashes at start up. I have tried a few fixes like starting up in compatability mode and changing the sound to 44100 and 48k but they dont work. Occasionally when I play around enough it will work but next time I try to play it is back to crashing.
recently i made a post on my netbook's problem to activate windows, when I used Vista, unfortunately i couldn't. Well yesterday i updated my computer to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit, i tried to activate windows but at the point i give my product key, it says that the key i typed is not a windows 7 one.
What is the best course of action to transfer my retail lic. for Windows 7 home from one computer to another?
Here is the situation. I had Windows 7 on my Mac as a dual boot, and it was a upgrade from XP on the same partition on my Mac. I have since formatted and sold that Mac so Win. XP or 7 is no longer on it or anything.
I am building a new Windows machine I want to install XP on and then use my Win 7 home upgrade to install Win 7 on that machine. What is the best way to get XP and 7 deactivated from the old (nonexistent) Mac and reactivate on the new machine?
What a pain MS makes a simple situation. P.S. if I need to call MS what is the number?
i'm trialling out Win7 Ultimate on a machine here that i'm thinking of upgrading to win7. the only problem is, it only lasts 3 days and when i do the re-arm trick it only lengthens it by another 3 days? this is the trick i've been using and they say it lasts 120 days? [URL]
i need more than just 9 days to test out win7 fully before i make the upgrade move on this machine.
I am using Windows 7 Pro and I've had it for a year and my computer is starting to run slow. I would like to reformat the HD and do a new install so it's will run fast again. Can I reformat the HD and reinstall Windows 7 using the same activation key? Or would I have to buy a new key?
Lo! Yet another Windows 7 activation hack appears. This one's a little more creative in that it doesn't require an OEM key at all, and instead bypasses the verification DLL completely.
The new hack nullifies sppcompai.dll, and even deactivates all the reminder popups that would otherwise ask you to activate indefinitely. But don't expect the party to last long. This crack closely mirrors an old Vista key workaround, and if Microsoft patched it easily then, they'll patch it easily now.
The crack is possible probably due to leniency allowed on the part of Microsoft on [the] activation mechanism to avoid getting too many false-positive or complaint on activation error
It just sucks that this game will continue. Microsoft obviously wants to make activation as painless as possible, but will probably beef up the security next time to fix these sort of exploits. Like most of you, I'm sick of DRM causing headaches for the ones who legally purchased the software, and developments like this certainly won't help.
I recently had to upgrade motherboards in one of my computers, resulting in Windows 7 asking to re-validate. I still have the disk, but all of the licenses on it are used up. Is there any way to get another license key without paying the $100 for a new copy of Windows?
Install is Home Premium from an OEM machine. I read that this doesn't give you access to Microsoft tech support, so is the option of calling and requesting a new one not possible?
My copy of Windows 7 has already been activated by me months ago, full legit retail of Ultimate.
However, today at home, I joined it to my domain down stairs in my basement. It joined successfully, but now the of my Window 7 PC is asking for activation again upon each login.
my laptop wont let me acsess any of my files only if i dowload win7 defender but i costs about £80 im only 15 and dont have that kind of money to spend so does anyone have an activationcod so i can get i free?
1. I have 2 computers - one running Windows 7 Pro x64 (main computer for work and gaming) and the other running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (second computer)
2. Both Windows 7 installations are OEM.
3. The second computer has been sitting dead for close to a year because the motherboard died and I have not really wanted to spend money getting it running until now.
4. The route I am taking is to upgrade the main computer (motherboard, CPU, and RAM) and put the current "main" motherboard, CPU, RAM into the 2nd computer.
Logic would dictate that I ONLY upgrade the 2nd computer and make it the main computer. However, the Main computer has an SSD Hard Drive in it and the 2nd one does not. So, I'd prefer to keep the SSD HD for it's speed. That's why I've chosen this convoluted replacement process. There are other reasons for the convoluted process if you need elaboration let me know.I did see a person ask about upgrading and keeping their license. I'm not sure if Microsoft views reasons for hardware changes due to failure differently. I suppose it's a matter of luck?
