Windows 7 license

After replacing the hard disk how to restore the Windows license?

If the windows COA on the bottom is warn off or not there then you are either going to have to purchase recovery media from HP or purchase a new license. There is not much that can be done about it if it has good missing or has been warn away.

Since HP no longer provides Recovery Media for your model, another site you should check is: http://www.computersurgeons.com/

Before using the media, read through this: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00006110

Good Luck

Hi, @Vitos19Rus 

If you can still read all 25 characters of the W7 product key on the COA label, you can reinstall W7 as follows...

Click on the Windows ISO Downloader.exe link below to download the tool to create the W7 ISO file download.

This link downloads a file that accesses the Microsoft Techbench W7 ISO files and generates the ISO file download you need.

Select the Windows COEM ISO file download for the version of W7 the product key is good for.

I have zipped up and attached the Microsoft utility below, that will allow you to either put the file on a USB flash drive or DVD, or you can use a different free utility such as Rufus.

Then you can install the drivers and available software from the PC's support page...

Download it somewhere you can, and then I'm from Russia?

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Yes.

Use that link I posted, and there is a download for W7 Home Premium in Russian.

Select the W7 COEM ISO files when you run the utility.

Thanks, you helped me a lot
