How do I get my Hewitt and Packard Compaq computer which had Windows 7 already installed to work as I have a message to say that this is not a genuine copy of Windows 7? I need an activation key which I do not have. Can anyone help please Brooklyn
It should have had a COA sticker on the case with a product key, assuming the windows installation is the original one. There might be other solutions depending on the history of the PC. Oh, I found this:

I don't know if it works.

Quoted from the link given in Response #1: Final Word
This procedure does not convert non genuine OS to genuine. It make use of non genuine OS without problems and without updates. If you want complete features and updates, you must buy Genuine OS.

If you have a non-genuine copy, there's nothing we can do to help, but Google may be able to. message edited by riider
