product key error RRS feed

  • Question

  • i purchased an acer aspire v3 several months ago. When i wanted to use the microsoft office, i was asked to enter the product key. There is a sticker behind my laptop on which the product key is written. But when i entered the key, i got a message telling that it is invalid. 
    i downloaded themicrosoft genuine advantage diagnostic tool and ran it. When i saw the diagnostic report, there were no problems shown in it... the only thing is that the product key shown in the diagnosis is different from what is written on the sticker at the back of my laptop. Which one is correct? the one written on the sticker is not as its showing that its incorrect. The product key on the diagonis looks correct. But the first 10 letters of the product key are not show in the diagnosis. What do i do now?

  • the product key on your computer will not work on Office. you must have an Office key. (you will have to purchase Office)

    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)

  • What should i do to activate microsoft office 2010?

    you will have to purchase it. many manufacturers include a free trial of office. to continue using it you have to purchase it. Office is not included with windows. it is a separate product. when you purchase it you will get an Office key.
