Hey I bought a pre built bundle a bit over a month ago with OEM Windows already installed am now getting messages about activating windows, can anyone tell me what I need to do? Do I have a key somewhere that I need to enter?
 
The key should already have been entered as part of the installation.

I don't think you can install without it.

Just follow the instructions and activate over the internet.

It should only take a mouse click or two.

If you do need the licence number then it will be on a sticker attached to the PC.

Activate Windows 7 on this computer
 
I press activate over the internet and it asks for a key, which I don't have anywhere. There's no sticker on the PC either, or could it be on the inside?
 
Did u get a Windows 7 Disk with your bundle? Have you checked in your motherboard
box that came with the bundle as thats were OcUK usuall put it if they have sent you
one with a pre built system.

If not give them a ring in the morning and see what they say there cutomer service is A+
so they will help you out with it no problem m8.
 
Just called up, it would appear they'd forgotten to include the disc as I just double checked all the boxes I received and there was nothing. In fact I've just realised I don't have any discs apart from the one that came with the monitor, does that sound right?
 
Never bother with discs anyway, far better to download from the internet. You should have an OEM code as a sticker, where was it bought from?
