    My PC won't start due to a hardware failure. I'm going to buy a new PC but how can I get the serial number from the broken one so I can reinstall on the new one?

    Serial number of self-built PC

    I'm confused?? Is the computer listed in the Microsoft Account/Devices page or not? If not, you have to register it and it may take a couple of days to register in the Microsoft Store.

    Getting Windows serial number from broken PC

    Why some BIOS have and some didn't have serial no?

    Hi!
    Does somebody know why some BIOS have a serial number and why other dont have?

    On some system if I run the powershell command
    Code:
    I get a serial number than on other I don't get a serial number or I get "System Serial Number" written.

    Why is this?
    How can I know before I buy a pc does it support serial number in BIOS or not?

    The serial number is very important when we integrate the pc to Azure...

    Thanks for any help and suggestion.
