Stead Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 you still need a CD KEY and still need to activate with an OEM versionI've never seen a laptop/desktop come with a vista dvd myself, but I can only assume it reads the activation info from the bios if vista was preinstalled just use the key on the side of the pc, or underneath the laptop, thats always worked for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 you have to enter your OEM Key and put the OEM KEy certificate inside the DVD to have a self activating OEM Vista Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinkster Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 If you still have the original OEM installation installed or can install it from a factory restore, then you can use this nice little utility that will backup the license and certificate from your computer and then restore it after you have installed your vLited version. You can burn the backup onto your DVD and run a script to automatically apply it after Windows is installed.See this thread for more info: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
