    windows 8 key embedded in the bios of a windows 7 compaq presario cq57

    can i download windows 8 and use the key in the bios? i'm guessing this is because the laptop was made in 2012 just before the release of windows 8.

    If it originally came with 7, then no, it won't have a hate product key in the BIOS.
    I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

    No wonder it doesn't work! You installed the jumper wires backwards

          It's probably a SLP OEM key, if that's the case it will only work on a manufacturer's install disk (or one that's been modified).

                Not true, you can use any Microsoft media disc, as long you know the OEM SLP Product key which can be obtain here.

                or here, but it exports it out to a xml file.

                But also you need SLP windows 8 slic table in the bios for it to work and links I posted above only work for vista or 7.

                    is it windows 8 capable?
                    Is this from your laptop?

                    It looks like it already has msdm and the slic in it, technically your "BH3RN-B7FDM-C7WGT-4CR4X-6CKHM" Might be the key for windows 8.



                    EDIT: looks to be a dummy key, it was found in 6 different HPs, a Dell and acer.

                      its a dummy key that exists in compaq to damn it!
                      Things I've fixed: anything from semis to crappy Chinese $2 radios, and now an IoT Dildo....

                      You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.

                      Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

                        If the SLIC table says ver. 2.1, as yours do, it's licensed for Win7.
