Installation :: Keep Rebooting After Inserting Product Key
Sep 24, 2015
I have a new computer with windows 10, at the first boot the computer did some things to prepare itself for use, but then I was asked to give my credenitals to account, I used my windows account, but there was some error and I had to reboot. Since then this is what happens: when I boot up there is (probably, cause English is not my native language)
Then I choose my language and click next, after that it asks for a product key, after I confirm that (or skip) and use express settings it goes into "just a moment" than the computer reboot and I am at the begining again.

Im not trying to do anything illegal or anything but i want to create a skipable installation iso. Ive been able to successfully do this with windows 8/8.1. The reason for me to do this is I work at a computer repair shop and we do a lot of installs. To keep up a fast pace i find it easier to skip the product key initially and activate it later. I cant seem to find the ei.efg file to edit. Perhaps they changed the format of the install.

According to my computer, Windows7 is activated and is a genuine product. But when I attempt to download W10, it does not recognize the 25 digit Product Key. I don't know what to do.

I have just restored a saved version of a VM Windows 10 upgraded from Windows 7. It had a digital entitlement but the restored machine required activation. I chose what I thought was the Product Key of the Win 7 machine prior to the upgrade but it was rejected. I now realise that I may have used the wrong key but it raises a question.
How can you tell what Product Key you have used to activate an installation of Win10 which shows as activated?

I am trying to upgrade GENUINE Windows 8.1 PRO x64 to Windows 10 Pro x64 from the ISO I made from the Microsoft RTM files. I am upgrading from within the 8.1 OS and choosing the option to keep "nothing" of my settings and personal files.
I have two problems.
The first is that the installation asks for a product key. On the other hand, when I upgraded my Windows 7 machine to 10 from within the OS it didn't ask for a product key. Why do I need to provide the product key to upgrade my 8.1 system, but not my 7 system?
Second problem is that I can not upgrade from 8.1 PRO to Win10 PRO. When I put in the general product key for the Win10 HOME edition the install proceeds, but it does not take the other (different) product key corresponding to the Win10 PRO version, even though it should. Why can't I go 8.1 PRO -> 10 PRO?

I have a newly installed Windows 7 Professional x64 (not single language) with SP1 that is fully updated, genuine and activated. If I slip the Win10 CD used to upgrade several Win 7 Home Premium PCs in and ask it to upgrade me it requires a product key to continue. There is no option to skip this. The Win7 product key fails, the Insider key fails, the Next button is greyed out. The same issue irrespective of whether I take recent updates or not. I am logged on to a local admin account.
I clicked the flag in the system tray to register for Win 10 but that tells me my report is not ready yet. This after 8 hours of continuous connection to the internet. SFC shows no corruptions.

Will windows 10 update provide a product key for clean install? If so how/where?
If not when performing a clean install, will skipping the product key prompt, then activating once desktop appears automatically activate and inject a product key?Lastly rather than extract the esd file, where to get a genuine Microsoft iso's on release date?

I have a Lenovo flex 2 laptop that is brand new and used to run windows 8.1 until earlier today.
I opted for the recommended win 10 upgrade, and things went smoothly until it was time to reboot.
The laptop begins to boot, I get to see the Lenovo start screen for a few seconds, and then it turns off before starting over again.
This loop has been going on for 8 hours, as of right now.
All attempts to access the boot menu via the F2, F8, F11, and F12 keys have failed, and the novo key has had no effect.
I am desperate at this point- the laptop is brand new. And now it is next to useless. No actual customer support is available in the country I live in. I just want a way to go back to win8.1.

MacBook late 2009 running parallels. Originally upgraded when Win 8 was installed. Win 10 upgrade loaded Home. Removed Win 10, upgraded to Win 8.1. Now when I try to reload Win 10, it will not install Pro, only Home.
When I go to change product key under activation, it will not let me change serial number. (Old Win 8.0 Serial Number)
Clarification: Cannot even select change product key. I only get a "ding".

After inserting audio CD there is a small popup briefly displayed at bottom right.
" Tap to choose what happens with audio CDs"
If I tap, it then displays a popup at top right which says
Choose what to do with Audio CDs
It then lists 4 options:
VLC,
Windows Media Player
Dropbox
Take no action
How do I add a 5th option ? (ie another program which is installed on my PC)
I want the choice of 5 options to bedisplayed every time I insert an audio CD.

I decided to make an image of my C drive on my windows ten spare laptop,Using the free Macrium Reflect software. Followed all the info on how to proceed with the software,It all went well I burnt the recovery disc as directed.
Now this is where things got a bit wrong,I went to place the recovery disc into the drive and of course started the laptop up then when it came to press on the respective key on the keyboard,The next thing I saw was that the optical drive had opened the recovery disc up and all the contents were showing in the file explorer.
How do I overcome this problem has it got something to do with the settings in the auto run not to open the disc.

First things first, here's my pc specs:
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit
CPU: Intel i7 4770 3.40Ghz
GPU: EVGA Nvidia GTX 770 2GB
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87M-D3H
PSU: EVGA 600B
So, this week I've started to notice a strange behavior with my system. It started rebooting itself. The thing is I did not 'catch' my PC in the act. One time I was away and let it with the screen locked, the other I was going for some snacks and when I came back the pc had rebooted itself. As I use a SSD drive for the OS, the reboots are so fast that most of the time I only notice when I open Chrome again and theres a warning asking me to restore my tabs. This is a gaming PC as well, but I didnt have any unexpected reboot while gaming. That led me to the hypothesis that the PC rebooted itself while idling for some time.
I was using Windows 8.1 before and upgraded it through Windows Updates.My PC is quite new yet, I've built it on july 2015.I've opened the Event Viewer and there I can see many critical errors at the time of the reboots:There are 6 logs like this, there are diferencies in some information. I've attached a text file cause I didnt want to make this post huge (here's the full log: logs )

My computer, after the Windows 10 update, keeps rebotting after I hibernate. I can't remember if it does this for a regular shutdown. I tend to push the power button to prevent it from booting Windows.
I did go and disable "allow this device to wake" in Device Manager and I don't think I've been using any other peripherals.
One other thing (unrelated): I bought an Oduo bluetooth adaptor but I didn't build my PC with a CD drive. I haven't been able to find drivers and it's unlikely I'll be able to ask a friend to rip an ISO. Am I stuck with this CD I can't use? I don't see a website.

I've been having some issues with my PC suddenly rebooting itself and then turning back on.Sometimes it gets stuck in a sort of loop never quite getting past BIOS during reboots before it finally starts up.It'll then work for x amount of minutes/hours and reboot itself.Temperatures seem fine, no virus as far as BitDefender or Microsoft can tell. I might be playing, watching YouTube or simply browsing and it'll reboot.
I think this started up after my W10 install (it's a clean install) and it seems to be getting steadily worse. You can see today how many times it rebooted. URL...

I have a Asus Windows 8 laptop and I decided to install Windows 10 two days ago.Today, I was trying to update my Kaspersky internet app on the computer and it told me that I had to reboot so I did. But it started having trouble and I got a blue screen. At first I tried to shut down and opening the laptop again but it happened the same thing. I went to troubleshoot and decided to reset the whole laptop. It was resetting but it shut down because of low battery and I tried to reboot it and ever since its showing the Logo and shutting down and then restarting again not being able to past that screen. I had to force shut down the computer to stop it from doing that but can't turn on the laptop at all.

When I am playing certain games, my pc will randomly reboot. no BSOD, no warning, nothing. Iv'e done the following to try and discover and troubleshoot the issue ...
-Monitored GPU & CPU temps: stays stable, happens at many different temps, but nothing high, roughly 55C or so
-disabled all overclocks: set my CPU back to normal profile and disabled GPU settings back to default
-Updated video drivers: Currently have 361.75, problem persisted on older version as well
-ran memory test: no errors found
-performed GPU stress test: never rebooted, did this for an hour
The games ive had this happen to are: borderlands 2, Firefall & GTA V (single player)
-I checked my logs and i seem to have a Kernel-power event 41 error happening.
I would like to avoid wiping my system and starting over, this is my last attempt before I go this route.

Instead of upgrading directly from the media creation tool, I decided to make ISO so that i can upgrade my friends PC's too as I did while I upgraded from 8.1 to 10, But this time it dint go well.Though I was successful in creating the ISO, when i mounted ISO and ran the setup, its asking for me the product key, I entered my current windows 10(Genuine) product key but it dint work, i also tried my old windows 8.1 key that too dint work. But last time whenI was upgrading too windows 10 using the same method it dint ask for the key. And my laptop is dell inspiron 15r with genuine windows.

For the last month or so I have had random BSOD and rebooting instances. It doesn't seem to be related to any specific program, as far as i can tell. I have run diagnostics on my memory, cpu, and I have do a fresh install of my graphics drivers.

I have been using Windows 10 Pro for a good number of months now, and have had no problem with it up until last week or so. Now, whenever I reboot my computer for updates or whatnot, it will revert back to Windows 7 instead of Windows 10. Win 10 is on my SSD, and Win 7 is on my old HD that I used for storage. My boot priority in the BIOS has always been the SSD, however now, when I check the BIOS after a Win 7 boot, the only item in the Boot Priority list is the old HD, and the SSD isn't even there. If I dig around in the BIOS, I can find the Boot Menu, where my SSD is still listed, and when I click on that, it will boot back up in to Windows 10, usually until I have to reboot again.
