windows 7 Can't activate windows 7

[News Bot]

I recently had a new lap top supplied to me from work because my laptop at home has broken beyond repair. I didn;t like all the extra software that toshiba had installed on the computer and as I was 2 days away from travelling out from UK to Asutralia i

decided it would be quicker to reformat myself. I did a clean install of windows 7, using the disc I had for my home PC.

 

 

I thought that the windows key that came with the laptop would be ok to use but it refused the key, so i decided to install from my own disc being as it is not being run on my home computer anymore.

 

 

I now have the activation window counting down the days I have left to activate and I am in australia, and cannot get back to the UK for 3 weeks. I am worried sick that my laptop will stop working and that I will not be able to communicate with home or do

any work. I do not have the product key from the disc with me, I only have the key on the back of the lap-top.

 

Is it possble for microsoft to reassign the activation key in my windows to the one which is current andd was initially installed on my lap top. Any help or feedback will be very much aappreciated. I rely on my laptop for everything from famly communications

to work diary, repot writing etc. At the moment i don' dare to try doing anything myself incase I make a mistake and lose the days left before it freezes from not being activated.
