    My laptop was purchased at a retail store and came with Windows 7 installed.  Due to BSOD issues, etc. I decided to do a clean install of Windows 7.  I don't believe it came with an actual CD/DVD.  I get Error Code 0xC004E003 when trying to activate it.  I ran the Genuine Microsoft Software utility and it says it's legit.  Here is a copy from the diagnostic tool:

    looks like you did not use OEM recovery media for your install. if you had it would have self activated. You are using the OEM SLP key which can not be activated by normal means.

    You will have to change your product key to the one on your COA

    click start

    right click computer

    select properties

    scroll to the bottom of the page and select change product key

    You will then have to activate by phone:

     How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)

    1) Click Start, and in the Search box type:   slui.exe  4

    2) Next press the 'ENTER' key

    3) Select your 'Country' from the list.

    4) Choose the 'Phone Activation' option.

    5) Stay on the phone (do not select/press any options) and wait for a person to help you with activation.

    6) Explain your problem clearly to the support person.

    Additional information:

    Computers, which are built by large manufactures that come with Windows Pre-Installed, come with two (2) Product Keys:

     OEM SLP: This key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes from the Factory. This key is geared to work with the special instructions found only on that Manufacturer's computer hardware. So when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP key (at the factory) Windows 7 looks at the motherboard and sees the special instructions and Self-Activates. (that's why you did not need to Activate your computer after you brought it home)

     

     COA SLP: This is the Product key that you see on the sticker on the side (or bottom,[ or inside the battery compartment]) of your computer. It is a valid product key, but should only be used in limited situations (such as if the OEM SLP key stops self-activating for whatever reason). The key must be activated by Phone. (Note: All manufacturers that use the OEM SLP system are required by contract to include a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) sticker, that has a COA SLP key, on the computer)

    "you did not use OEM recovery media for your install"

    That's exactly what I needed to see. I was trying to be slick by only using a Win7 installer ISO to avoid the bloatware.  It was not slick at all.  Luckily I had made a set of HP Recovery DVDs.  Ran those and 3 hours later was back up and running (and activated!).  Appreciate the help - thanks!
