Win7 Key - Help Please

DefiantAsh · 13 Aug 2011 at 17:17

I installed Win7 Professional in April and now i have a DirectX issue and have to do a fresh install.

Which i normally do every 6 months anyway.

However...

I don't have a copy of my Win7 key, which was provided by my University from MSDNAA.

However when i go onto my Order History, im getting no results, which i have downloaded a 32bit and 64bit of Win7 Professional from them.

Is there anyway i can manually find my Win7 Key on my pc? Control Panel or something?

Would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Neither of them work.

Keyfinder gives me - BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB

and Produkey gives me - "Profile key not found"

:/ Think ill leave it and get a new key when i get my pc later this year.

Can't you just order a new key?

I think MSDNAA recently got revamped and all previous orders were wiped. You'll need to re-order.

Also, SP1 integrated isos are now available. So yeah, login and try to order again.

Run as admin? Don't know if it makes a difference but can't hurt to try

Yes, no work.

Guess i might order a new key, as i might be right thinking the 32bit key will work with 64bit Win7 install?

I use msdnaa too, you will need to just make another order. The key should get emailed to.you a long with the order confirmation.

I think its best just to get another key from MSDNAA, seems they have wiped wiped my history, which i could only access my key from their site, as they don't send via email for security reasons.

As for Thundy, apologies if they posted items not suitable for the forums.

On my behalf anyway, they can apologise themselves.
