For me, Usually the product key is embedded on the recovery disk. I have an HP Windows 7 recovery disk and I do not need to input my key. It just installs and works for me. I assume the product key is no where to be found on the machine.

So I have an HP Elitebook 8470p that came up with pirated Windows 7 pre-installed (bought from local shop). It has a Windows 8/8.1 sticker on the bottom so I assume the Windows Product Key is embedded in the bios.<br />
<br />
Is there any way I can identify correct Windows version from it's product key?
