The key finder gives the Dell System locked Preinstallation Key which is used for Dell OEM activation. You can find more information (in my very long document). See Windows Reinstallation Guide/A Clean install of Windows 7 Step 2 to backup the product activation just in case: [URL]  If you are using the Dell Reinstallation DVD your product should automatically input the Dell SLP key and activate when a Dell BIOS is corrected. If you are using a Windows 7 .iso (recommended as it includes Service Pack 1) then you can use the activation backup and recovery program and restore the product activation as mentioned in Step 11. A Clean Install of Windows 7 will help guide you through the installation process
Hi, 2 years ago I bought a Dell laptop "XPS 17 (L702x)"  my fabrication code is  . I want to format my laptop and make it "new" again but I notice that my windows product key is impossible to read. I can see some part of the key but not all. It's xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx. In this way I will not be able to re-install it. Can you give me the missing part of my code? Where can I ask for it? I've try to use a KeyFinder but I know for sure that they are "finding" the wrong code because I can read more that half of it and it's not matching. Please help me!
