I just purchased a Gateway NV57H50u Laptop from BestBuy that came preloaded with Windows 7 Home Premium OA.
I wanted to do a clean Install so i put in a Retail Disc of Win7 and entered my product Key (located at the back of the laptop)
When i tried to activate Win7 it gave me an error "The product key you typed in Invalid for Acativation"
I thought that when you Install Windows it picks up the Key from the BIOS of the laptop, as long as select the correction version of windows.
Do i need to reinstall windows again?
