    Activating Windows 10 with Windows Vista Home Premium


    I have a Windows Vista Home premium key, that when Win7 was release, I update to it. When Win10 came out same thing, no issues. Now, had problems with my hard drive and had to re-install and activate Win10. I went to a MCP here in the city I live in Germany, and problem solved. Two weeks later, my system crashed and had to replace the Mainboard and hard drive. Now, I installed windows without a Key and when prompted to activate windows, I can't. It says my key has already been used.How can I reset my Windows Key to activate?

    :)

  2. Windows Vista Activation

    I have 4 sytems in my home running vista(1 ult.-3 prem).The ultimate & 1 premium took SP1
    wthout a hitch.1 premium required re-activation?,The other premium did not list SP1 in windows up-date,So i manually installed it without any re-activation required.
    Also have to add that SP1 has increased performance in every comp.The ultimate machine actually got a 1,100 point increase in 3d 06 without any other changes at all.

    Windows Vista Premium requirements

    Microsoft has broken down its requirements for the Windows Vista logo program into two categories: Basic and Premium. To get the Premium logo the PC has to have the following requirements:
    • Must have H.264 hardware decoding
    • Must have HDCP
    • Must support multi-monitor support
    • Must have HD audio
    • Must have HD audio jack presence detection
    • Must have Serial ATA 2.5
    • Must have minimum of 50MB NV cache on hybrid HD's with at least 8MB/sec write 16MB/sec read (for mobile only)
    • Must support booting from USB flash drives
    • Must have Windows Vista Green Button on all remotes
    • Must have Green Driver Quality Rating (DQR)
    The hybrid HD is only required by notebooks. Well It seems my PC is not Windows Vista Premium logo compliant.
