| Is there a way to recover my Vista OEM Key? Ok, my installation of Vista home premium isn't working right at all. I am going to play around and see if there is a way to fix things via the dvd etc. I've lost my key though, I am using another person's copy of vista too. I am on XP right now, and Vista is on another drive on the same pc. Is there a way for me to recover the oem systembuilders key I used when i installed vista originally? |

| Re: Is there a way to recover my Vista OEM Key? Your Windows product key is usually available on your Certificate of Authenticity sticker located on the chassis your machine if your system came preloaded with Vista, usually at the bottom of a laptop. If your key has some how become lost or stolen, try RJL's software Windows Product Key Viewer for product key recovery, supports both Windows Vista x86 and x64: [url]http://www.rjlsoftware.com/software/utility/winproductkey/download.shtml[/url] -- Andre Blog: [url]http://adacosta.spaces.live.com[/url] My Vista Quickstart Guide: [url]http://adacosta.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E8E5CC039D51E3DB!9709.entry[/url] "vistaatemylunch" <vistaatemylunch@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:14D728E9-09B3-4742-94D6-D574D0B4B0E7@microsoft.com...[color=blue] > Ok, my installation of Vista home premium isn't working right at all.
