lion02 Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 I dont have my recovery disk. So what i did, i borrowed a vista premium and had a clean installation to my cpu. Then after that, i noticed that my copy needs to be activated. Now my question is, how can i re-activate my oem copy, if its already activated.

Kelsenellenelvian Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 You can't you don't have an OEM copy anymore you now have a premium retail version of Vista.You will have to call the company you bought the PC from and ask them for the recovery media.Do not activate with your friends serial it will just screw him and you.
kartel Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 what about when you dont enter a key on install, select the correct OS for your key, you'll need a oem of any version maybe?
