Vista Ultimate expires and requires cd key
Hi. I would like to know the ways on how I can retrieve the cd key for my vista ultimate that expired. The product key on the sticker is not a match for the installed OS and I lost the original vista ultimate that I installed. Thanks for the help.

Windows doesn't usually expire unless you failed to activate it, where did your copy of Vista come from?

You can get your key here: http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder/. If it is a pirated copy,the key will not work.
