Product key

Please, if someone knows why the product key, ( writes in the back side of
lap top)is not correct, actually, when I type the last of 25 caracters, it
says is not correct. What can I do? Thanks in advance, Alex

Hi Alex,

Check the numbers/letters carefully, it's easy to mix up B and 8, 0 and O, S
and 5, or L and 1.

What precisely is the error message and when do you recieve it? Also, why
are you entering your product key? Are you reinstalling?

I wanted to know did you ever find out what the problem was and did you ever
get the product key working?

Hi,

That happens when letters and numbers are mixed up. B and 8; I, L, and 1; 0
and O; S and 5, etc.
