I bought the laptop for someone else, and when I asked that person, he said his copy of Windows is activated, but did not recall exactly how he did it and couldn't find anything with a Windows key on it.

You will not be able to upgrade your current version of Windows. The product key resides in the BIOS which allows it to operate as a licensed machine. Any attempt to go to Microsoft for added features or upgrade will result in Microsoft asking for the product key which you will not be able to get. If you need it, the only way is to purchase another copy from Microsoft or potentially go through Samsung but I haven't tried that yet. Cheers.

The first mistake you made was purchasing the product. Now you need to either return the product to where you purchased it from for a different one, or call Samsung customer service to see that they can help you. I bet they have no clue how to help you!

Did you buy the actual disk or download it from their site? If you bought the disk the key is on the envelope, if you downloaded it the key should have been sent to your email address.

The key code should be on the envelope your disc or cd was in. You had to tear the sticker that has your key code on it in order to get the cd out. Good luck

I know the answer is too late, but I had a similar issue. Started with the Ctrl key, and it then happened to other keys. I contacted Logitech via email about this. The next morning I had a response asking for proof of purchase/receipt. I emailed them my Amazon invoice. The next day I had a return shipping label. It took 5 days M-F to get to them, and another 5 days to get my replacement. I got a brand new keyboard from them. I was expecting a refurbished unit or just have the keys replaced on mine. I was very impressed by the service (honestly, I wasn't expecting such an effortless and pleasant process). I know the answer is too late, but I had a similar issue.

The product key is on the installation disc that should have come with it. I had no luck with the device because it would not operate in Windows 7.

Christopher, If there's no Windows sticker on your computer, you can look up your product key by going to CONTROL PANEL -&gt; SYSTEM AND SECURITY -&gt; SYSTEM then just look to where it says "Windows Activation" and it lists your product key there. Do not ever share it. If you want a recovery disc, you can likely purchase one directly from Microsoft or make a system restore disc after you've removed the bloatware. Ah, you're correct, answered while tired. For the Activation Key you either have to wade the waters of Lenovo Customer Care to get them to send you one or you have to use a program that looks it up in your registry files. Try using: Product Key Finder - This link discusses the process here: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows-8/a/windows-8-product-key.htm

This one looks like to be installed MS Office, but you need Product Key for it. I mean, when you click MS Office icon and select "I already purchased Office 2010", you will see pop up "Enter your Product Key".

click the windows key (in between the alt an ctrl keys....and the Pause/Break key at the same time. Product Key is on the screen that comes up.

It all depends on what other changes you have made.Just ring Microsoft and let them know what you have done and they will give you new activation code :)

i signed up to have the free windows 7 sent to me and they said nothing about paying for shipping. they only said they will send me an email when they send it out. they didn't ask me for a credit card number and they can't really charge me without it.

It has been my experience that product keys only work for the disc it was coded to. In short, NO. I have tried using keys from similar discs of various Microsoft programs, i.e. Outlook, etc. and they would not work. It would seem that this would be unnecessary since you have a copy of the disc with its own key. That's the best answer I can suggest. I hope all goes well. My copy seems to work flawlessly, as purchased. No problems.

There should be a slip of paper included in the box with the microsoft office (student and home edition) product key. Otherwise, ask the store that you made the purchase.

I purchased mine online so there was so license key. So don't know. Call 800 833 6687. Maybe you can fine help here.

To activate it, there is a code on the back. You have to register your product to make sure that no one is sending around duplicate copies. If that copy doesn't work then someone has already used that key. I would send a message to who you purchased it, or keep trying to contact windows.

It should be on the side of the computer there's a sticker that says product key

My guess is that you're asking for either a product NAME or product NUMBER: Product Name: 2000-2d89NR Product Number: E0K70UA If you're asking for the WINDOWS product key (which wasn't specifically asked for), it's on a sticker on the bottom of the unit, OEM license.
