Windows Product Code in Invalid

Question
-
I ran the dignostic tool today and this is the report.
I bought this computer about one year ago and I had no problems with the copy of windows.
It came with the operating system already installed and I have no access to the windows activation code.
The laptop does not have a windows sticker on the bottom either.
I do have a reinstallation disc but I want to know if there is another way to fix my problem.
Windows Vista Home Premium 32Bit SP1
I have a Dell Studio laptop Jun 2009 version
Thanks for the help.
Sincerely,
Remoman11

Hello Remoman11,
You may try resetting your Licensing Store (the below steps) but if that doesn't work, then there is a disruption in the connection between the COA SLP key and the computer's OEM Bios Flag. This connection is what allows the OEM SLP key to automatically activate Windows.
This type of disconnect was anticipated as a possible problem and that is why that All computers (sold by Large Manufacturers) that come with Windows Pre-installed are Required to come with a Certificate of Authenticity (CoA) sticker. And on that CoA sticker contains the COA SLP key which was designed as a Backup to the OEM SLP key. If the below steps don't work, the resolution is to change product keys to the CoA SLP key.
-If that computer didn't come with a CoA sticker, that the installed copy of Windows would be considered Non-genuine. In that case, I would recommend that you contact the person or company that sold you the computer and return the computer for a full refund.
-If the CoA did come with the computer but was later lost, there is not much I can do but to refer you to this support doc KB811224 "How to identify, locate, and replace a product key" http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811224
Reset Licensing Store Steps for Vista:
1) Open an Internet Browser window.
2) Type: %windir%\system32 into the browser address bar.
3) Find the file CMD.exe
4) Right-Click on CMD.exe and select 'Run as Administrator'
5) Type: net stop slsvc (it may ask you if you are sure, select yes)
6) Type: cd %windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareLicensing
7) Type: rename tokens.dat tokens.bar
8) Type: cd %windir%\system32
9) Type: net start slsvc
10) Type: cscript slmgr.vbs -rilc (It may take a long time for this to complete, please be patient)
11) Restart your computer twice.
12) You may be required to enter the Product Key and/or Activate.
Thank you,
