Questions & Answers

Hi, I was wondering what it means when Microsoft says that the OEM operating system isn't supported. Does " mean what it is supposed to mean? Microsoft's updates will I be able to get?

Unless it's for you, OEMs from Microsoft are not intended for people who want to build their own PCs, or who want to install them on their PCs for personal Up until Microsoft's XP operating system, this could be done. According to my personal experience, I know what you're going through. It's been four years since Microsoft sold Win 7 OEMs, pocketed the money, and now it's blocking individuals from using it on their own computers. As long as they were selling the OPK kit to someone else, it was allowed only if they used the kit for their own purposes. Now, you can't even do that, as the OPK "license" for Win 7 OEMs is no longer available (although Amazon and others are unloading them as fast as they can on innocent buyers), so buyers of Win 7 OEMs are stuck with a very expensive license This dollar coaster is a hoax! Despite numerous blue screens and system failures, I was unable to realize that Microsoft would not let me use the OEM on my own build as they used to do with their pre-release edition Currently, Windows 7 is the only operating system available. It now applies to Win 10 as well since they moved the goal posts. It is therefore no surprise that you might start seeing blue screens and other inconveniences in the next few weeks. The OEM was not working at all, while the retail box was working perfectly, and it kept crashing right after the Microsoft activation that gave me a bona fide "Genuine Windows" certificate, but then started zipping up my programs again afterward. With the new meaning of OEM being added to Win 7 systems and beyond, you should expect it to also apply to Win 10. Over the past ten years, I've built more than 50 PCs and I know what OEM stands for. My word is good, so you can take it I wish you all the best. Windows 10 is not something I will use.

Suppose I decide to change my motherboard later on, will I be able to use my CD key?

My motherboard has been replaced twice, and I have tried activating the Windows 10 OEM version myself on each time. It was not possible to reactivate the key since Microsoft locked it. The OEM version of Windows 10 I purchased from Amazon is the OEM version. I was told that I needed to get a new key or buy a new copy of Windows 10 if I wanted to keep my existing copy. The full non-returnable package ended up being my best decision Version of Windows 10 that was developed by the OEM. Spend the extra money on Windows 10's standard version instead of the enhanced edition if you don't want to hassle with the enhanced version.

The product key is supposed to be on the envelope, but where is it?

The registration was not necessary until recently, though I know it has been awhile since I bought it! I cannot type in my product key number because I am having an issue with NMPGM- Three 4ths - The j9k7H- The T9DR3 system There is a code WQKQT, but the encoding says that the Can you please tell me how I can register it?

What is the maximum amount of RAM it can ?

I was surprised by Windows 10, as it can handle as much RAM as your computer can handle. The system is easy to use and does just about everything for you. In the case of the software, all the drivers I needed were included. Installing was a breeze. I did not have to change anything. The new version is better than the old one A tad over 8!

Software that is pirated will be downloaded to your computer
3/5

As part of the process of building my first computer, I purchased all its components including this unit. I was so excited to finally receive the package after waiting five days. It took me most of the day to complete the PC build and install the operating system. Until the point at which I had to activate Windows, everything went well. I could not accept the key that was printed on the envelope. In an attempt to prove that I had purchased the software, I emailed him but he said they cannot access emails. I find it hard to believe that a major technology company should not even provide email accounts to its employees. In addition, I told him I had been a Microsoft customer for seven years and had an xbox live subscription. In the end, he said that it did not matter and that he was unwilling to do anything. I told him I would write a review mentioning that amazon sells pirated Windows software, they were replying that it was pirated.

I said I would write a review to make people aware than amazon sells pirated Windows It was a good idea according to him. Thus, I guess you could say that this poor review has received the Microsoft approval stamp. If at all possible, do not purchase this item from Amazon.

A key that has been lost or stolen should not be purchased
3/5

I was concerned this was too good to be true, despite how cheap it was. The answer is yes. I had already activated / stolen the key. Total waste of time and effort. The least I can say is that JW Geek responded appropriately to my refund request and granted it without.

A word of caution to buyers I have already entered the product key, it is not genuine
3/5

review is not of the Windows 10 operating system, but of the product key, and it includes the following information Having ordered this item, I would use it for my custom built PC to activate the product key. As soon as I entered the key to activate Windows, I got an error saying that "the product key has already been entered," which prevented me from activating There is a high probability that this is not a genuine copy of Windows and has therefore been STOLEN or SOLD to multiple parties. Despite this being a hyperbolic warning, I just wanted to share it with other people out there who are building their own computers. As a result, Windows cannot be activated on a newly built PC booted from a USB, and this product is defective. It is a real disappointment.

The activated option is not available
3/5

A valid activation key cannot be found for this operating system. It has already been activated too many times, according to the Windows activation server.

There is no reason to do business with this seller
3/5

There are already a number of Windows Product Keys Upon trying to install Windows 10, I realized that the product key for Windows 10 home had already been used by another computer. You should not buy this item as it is a scam.

The counterfeit version of Windows cannot be activated
5/5

THE UPDATE IS My questions were answered by Amazon overnight, and I was able to download Windows 10 without any problems. Bravo to Amazon for taking care of the issue. My son just got a pc I built for him and I installed this today. When I typed in my COA to activate Windows, I was told that it I just discovered that my copy is possibly a counterfeit on the Microsoft technical support page. As soon as possible, I will contact Amazon to complain. It is best to be cautious when buying.

I never was able to use my license
3/5

Amazon was the seller of this Windows 10 Home 64 Bit OS that I ordered. Installed Windows 10 by booting from the provided disk and using the scratch off included in the Win 10 disk envelope to enter the COA license. If Windows continues to say the license is invalid, it should be retried. When I finally got the return process going through Amazon, I tried ten times. As a Linux user, I cannot use the MS USB creation for installation of Windows 10 Home, so I purchased the Windows 10 Home version from the Microsoft website. Microsoft provided me an ISO image of Windows 10 to download as I am running Linux. It is also possible to e-mail Microsoft A copy of the COA license has been mailed to me. By using this MS COA license, the customer is able to secure the license electronically The first time I used the mail, it worked perfectly. When I buy a Windows OS direct from MS, I think they likely validate the license key first before they send it to me. If this is done, you can make sure the license has not already been acquired by someone else. As you can see from my other reviews and feedback, I am an enthusiastic Amazon customer. Although I found the Microsoft website to be the best and only way to buy Windows 10, I must say I purchased it through it.
