If it's not a real Windows 7 Pro OEM installation disc tied to a specific OEM brand/manufacturer, you can make one using the contents of that disc and the $OEM$ folder for that specific OEM in a few minutes time - just requires making an ISO of the DVD, adding the $OEM$ folder to that ISO, editing the ei.cfg to match the edition of Windows you're installing (technically this isn't required but I suggest people do it anyway) and voila, burn the newly edited "patched" ISO and you're done. The necessary $OEM$ folder with the SLIC file, the xrm-ms digital license, and other OEM identifiers (like the OEM logo/bitmap file that shows up on the System Properties, that sorta stuff) are all inside that folder and that's all that's required.
If you have a real Windows 7 Pro OEM installation disc, and it's tied directly to that branded piece of hardware, aka a Dell disc for a Dell, HP for HP, etc, you should NOT need to input a key, ever. The COA sticker is the proof of license/ownership - not the Product Key printed on it which for almost all intents and purposes is absolutely useless. The "royalty OEM key" is tied to the OEM obviously, it's the key you'd get if you used something like the Magical Jelly Bean Key Finder or some other tool - and obviously if and when you do extract the OEM key from such an installation, it will never match the key on the sticker. It takes seconds to add the necessary $OEM$ folder that has the proper info and files to reinstall that OS as many damned times as I please.Īll you require when you reinstall the OS on an OEM branded machine - as long as that laptop had Windows 7 on it from the factory (meaning the BIOS has the proper SLIC 2.1 information in it - SLIC 2.0 is for Vista 2.1 is required for Windows 7) - is the "royalty key" which is not the one on the sticker, unfortunately.

I've got a Dell Latitude laptop and while I didn't have the Windows 7 DVD (since Dell and most OEMs don't include them anymore), I knew that going in so I made my own installation DVD of Windows 7 Professional x86 and 圆4 (two different unique DVDs, of course). The key on the OEM COA sticker - in my experience over the past two decades or so - has never ever once actually worked, and that's using COA stickers for every OEM you can think of that's ever made a computer running Windows as an OS. If OEM keys are in fact one time only activation, does this also apply for OEM System Builders license, say bought from an online retailer? I've read somewhere that Vista/7 OEM keys are one time only activations, where an XP OEM key could be reactivated multiple times (like I've done before reinstalling my own system). Is there a difference in 7 Retail/OEM media? In XP days, if you tried to input a OEM key in Retail media it simply would not take it. In this instance, the key took it just won't activate. I understand 7 Retail/OEM uses all of the same media, or at least that's what I've read. How come this doesn't work with 7 (and I'm guessing Vista)? With XP, I was always able to use an OEM disc to reinstall a system then just throw in the OEM COA tag key. When I call it says the key can not be activated (wrong type to activate in this method). It prompts me to call the automated activation center. The key attempts to activate but can not. Yes, I reinstalled the Professional edition.

I tried using the OEM key on the COA today to reinstall it using my own Retail disc since the restore disc that came with it is full of bloat. I'm working on a purchased system that came with 7 Professional OEM installed.
I am not looking for "call Microsoft" because I understand I can do that, that's not the answer I'm looking for. However, those who want to personalize their home machines will like this easy-to-use freeware utility.I'm only asking for response from people who have personally dealt with this.

OEM Manufacturers will not appreciate that there is no method to save the information to install in numerous machines. That's the sum total of functions for this application. You can add an OEM logo, but it only accepts BMP files. Users will have to type and check to see if all the text makes it to System Properties. The application doesn't list maximum characters for each field. Operating OEM Info Editor is a mere matter of typing new text for Manufacturer, Model, and Support Information for System Properties. Novice users may need a few minutes to understand what this program alters, but even they will find it easy to operate. Intermediate to experienced users will find this utility incredibly easy to use. OEM Info Editor's small dialog interface makes it easy to quickly change manufacturer and support information for your system.
