Hello,
You can try to perform a system recovery:

If that doesn't work, you will need to order DVD recovery discs:

  • GE60 Apache Pro-003 mutes mic when S key pressed. Need recovery help...

    I don't actually believe that this is an issue with hardware as I have tried external keyboards and my friend pressed S using teamviewer and it still muted me.  I think the issue originated when I decided to install Ubuntu in front of the windows main partition moving the windows partition forward on the drive itself. Now I cannot create new recovery media because somehow that moving corrupted the recovery partitions.  I also can't find recovery media on MSI's website for purchase, at this point I think that either installing a vanilla version of windows 8 and installing the drivers afterwards may be my best bet.  I also considered buying the exact laptop again, creating recovery media from it, returning it and using the media on mine (I know how thrifty that sounds but I'm out of options).  I could also try moving the windows partition back on the drive but I believe the damage is done and that could cause more issues or inability to boot.  
    Any other ideas out there?

    usually when buying a laptop then if you didnt open box then you have 14 days rights to return it and have money back but if you broken the box and return it the store will mostlikely reject your return and say that you have opened the box so you will have to pay twice as much for both :/ so best bet is to send laptop to your store and they will send it off to MSI repair center or place that is certified by MSI to repair MSI laptops for them where they will then restore your drives back to factory layout so you can then run MSI BurnRecovery tool in windows to create own recovery USB or so
    Thats why you shall allways create recovery USB 1st time you buy a laptop before you begin to use it since some just buys laptop and use it and later the hdd is corrupted or damaged and they have lost recovery chanse :/

  • Error during the installation of permanent license keys

    Dear Experts,
    When applying SAPLicense following error message is geeting, please help how can i resolve this issue
    " Error during the installation of permanent license keys"

    More information needed.
    For example:
    Your SAP version?
    Is it a system copy?
    How exactly did you try to delete from SAP level?
    Without this information, nobody here can do anything but guess.
    There are a lot of SAP notes about similar problems.
    But for this you will have to supply more information.
    Or better; Search in SAP notes yourself!
    And here is my guess:

  • Finding license key

    please help me find my  license key. i also need to know how to back up files from my doughters lap top.

    Desktop, iMac: NM is on the Windows Partition, using Boot camp to access Windows, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit RTM, Broadcom Wireless N Card, McAfee Personal Firewall 2009,

  • System11 batch loader license key

    Hi all,
    We are on System 11. When scheduling a batch we get a " Failed - 2620 - Batch loader license key is invalid - At line 28"
    I was under the impression there are no license keys in System11.
    Does anyone know what this error means? Ive had a look in the workbench but I cannot find an option to enter a license key.
    Thanks for your help.
    Seb

    Not sure about v11, but this same message appears when using 9.3.1 if the Checkbox available through the Administration >Application Settings > Batch Loader menu item is not been ticked.

  • Need help in activation a license key in CCT. It works as a trial now

    Need help in activation a license key in CCT. It works as a trial now

    1st the sata drive cannot be listed as a slave drive to the ide master [key word=ide-can be configured as master OR slave, master IF only 1 hd, master and slave IF 2 hds], on the sata controler you can have master and slave, the ide cable has two connectors for the hds, sata has only 1 hd connector.
    are you wanting to install the sata as primary master and move the operating sys to that drive, if so you will need an IMAGING software to move an operating system OR you could do a fresh operating system install to the sata drive then install your programs.

  • Invalid License Key need help

    I just installed kodo 3.0.1 using the windows installer, I also asked it to
    install it in JBuilder9.
    Then when I went into JBuilder I saw the Configure KODO JDO under tools
    menu,
    when I click on this selefction the dialog comes up OK
    but when I try to close / OK this dialog I get an invliad license message.
    One mistake I did was that I satarted JBuilder9 before I updated the
    kodo.properties file.
    I closed JBuiulder and then updated the properties file and tried Jbuyilder
    again and got same invalid license message.
    Can you tell me how to fix this ?
    Thanks
    Mousa Shaya

    Thanks
    It wasn't clear from the documentation that I needed to do that. I am using
    3.0.0 docs and maybe that was the problem.
    Anyway I had added the license to the properties file and as you mentioned I
    added it to the General Tab and that solved the problem . I didn't see any
    project tabs.
    Thanks

    Mousa-
    There may be two separate tabs ("Project" and "Global"), both of which
    contain a license key field. If you enter the license key into both
    there fields, do you still get the error?
    If so, what exactly is the error?

  • Need license key

    Recently during BIOS upgrade my Windows 8.1 installation for Aspire E5-411G-P717 notebook was damaged and recovery would not be allowed because the windows install partition was blocked. So, I resorted to the only known way to recover by using GPARTED to delete the partitions and doing a fresh Win8.1 reinstall. Windows 8.1 now asks me to update the license key but the computer never came with a sticker with a license key. So, I'd like Acer's help with this. I contacted Acer outlet at Amazon (the seller) for help but they don't keep any such information.
    So, I'm stuck - I paid for the win8.1 x64 license when I purchased my computer but now I don't have the license key to register the windows with Microsoft and use it fully because some Win8.1 features are only available after it's registered.
    How can Acer help? I'm sure I'm not the first customer with this issue given that Acer has had BIOS upgrade issues (I've been following the forums on Acer) and Acer does not provide Win8.1 license info on a sticker like it used to be.
    Thanks in advance for your help. I cna provide Serial# and any other details as well as proof of purchase if needed to track my device. I bought it 5 weeks back from Amazon with Acer outlet as the seller (my notebook was sold as refurbished).
     

     No machine released with Windows 8 from vendor will come with a Windows 8 License sticker underneath, regardless of the brand. This is one of  Microsoft's security measures to reduce piracy. This is a new Microsoft initiative.  The Product key is electronically stored in the firmware of your mainboard. So if you need to reset or reinstall Windows 8, you don't need to hunt for the product key. It's automatically applied and activated. That's certainly a plus, especially when the numbers on those product key stickers wear out or are just too small to easily read.  You need to get the recovery media and restore the same OEM version of windows shipped wiht your computer to activate windows without product key.  Click the Kudos to say “Thanks” for helping! select "Accept Solution" if your issue is resovled.

  • Need license key for a software I bought

    I got the Mundu Radio Plus from the App World. I did not get the license key. I contacted the support for the software and they told they can not generate a license key, that this is done by the App World. Please inform how to get this license key. Thanks,

    You shouldn't need a license key if the app was purchased in AppWorld, the license key is part of the "purchase" and should recognize as a paid app.
    If you continue to have problems with this, call your mobile provider tech support and have them escalate this issue to RIM level tech support.
