The best and most cost-effective way for customers to acquire Windows software is preinstalled on a new PC. However, more customers are becoming aware that they are running non-genuine Windows on their PCs. The Get Genuine Kit gives you a cost-effective solution to help them get legal, deepen your customer relationship, and be there as a trusted advisor.

How It Works:

Acquire the Get Genuine Kit from an authorized Microsoft® OEM distributor.

Affix, or instruct the end-user to affix, the enclosed certificate of authenticity (COA) label to the PC.

Microsoft recommends, but does not require, that on the end user's computer system you either:
  • Run the Windows Product Key Update Tool
  • Perform a re-install of Windows XP
  • Perform a clean install of Windows XP

Either you or the end customer must do one of these things in order to receive updates, upgrades, and support services.

  • The Get Genuine Kit is available from an authorized Microsoft OEM distributor in packs of 1 or 10.
    • 1 license pack contains: 1 COA label, 1 media and 1 end user license agreement (EULA)
    • 10 license pack contains: 10 COA labels,1 media and 1 EULA
  • 10-packs must be used for a single customer and must not be divided among multiple customers.
  • Bits are similar to full packaged product bits in that they will not wipe clean the hard drive upon installation.
  • Microsoft provides product support for this Kit. This differs from OEM system builder software which the PC Manufacturer supports.
  • The license is NOT transferable to another PC.

    Users can download a tool to change the product key:

    Run tool

    Enter Product Key

    Restart computer

    correct me if im wrong, but isnt this a windows users forum. why is it some, think they are special, linux user has to pop off with something they find to be witty, just to be as annoying as possible. smugness is not funny, being smug is sign of somebody that maybe didnt get enough attention as a child, or maybe was still wetting his bed at the age of 12.....but maybe thats just my view on things.
