0xC004C003 error with new hard disk drive RRS feed

    Recently the hard disk drive in my laptop broke down. I sent it to be fixed and now I have a new HDD in my laptop.
    Obviously the retailer had to install windows again (windows vista home ed.) but now when i access my computer,
    windows asks me to activate it.
    I enter the windows serial code which is on the sticker on the bottom side of my the laptop but when I do,
    I get an error (0xC004C003) which says that the serial key is already in use.
    As you can see, the old HDD is no longer in use, so what can I do to de-activate the key on the that HDD (which is no longer in use since it broke down), and activate it on the new HDD?

    Hello Viktor Berg,

      It appears that when the repair guy reinstalled Vista, he used a Retail version, but the key on the bottom of your computer is for an OEM version.  It shouldn't matter, but from experience I know that OEM Keys seldom work in Retail software.

      To resolve the issue, you would need to install the OEM version of Vista by using the OEM Vista Restore software (that came with your computer) The Restore software may have been provided on a Disk that came with the computer or may have been included on a hidden partition on the computer's hard drive.  All computer manufacturers supply the software in a different way, so you will need to check the computer's documentation (or contact the computer's manufacturer) for instructions specific to your computer.

    Thank you,
    Darin MS
