Hello. A few months ago my Samsung laptop burned down. Which was bought from if I'm not mistaken in 2012 with licensed Windows 7 Home Premium with a laptop. Everything worked well without problems. Since my laptop burned out, I installed my hard drive on another Dell laptop. Because there are other licensed programs on my hard drive. Now I have a problem with the license. writes 2 days left.
When I bought I made Backup Windows. Disks available. I want to find a solution to my questions
If there is no support for my Windows, then why should I buy anything from your product? I bought my time laptop with Windows. Now, for some reason, the laptop burned out and I can't use my Windows on another laptop. Why even buy a licensed Windows that I can not restore
Which error code are you receiving when you try to enter your product key?
Windows 7 End of Life was January 14, 2020 and you will no longer receive support for Windows 7. My best suggestion is to buy a Windows 7 key through a third-party or to upgrade your Windows OS to one that is supported (10/11).

You say that there is no support

When a laptop is purchased it comes with an OEM license.
This type of license cannot be moved to another computer.
It is married to the motherboard and has end of life when the computer fails.
Often it is not practical to purchase and replace hardware on a laptop.
If you were able to identify and replace a major hardware component on the failing laptop the license could be reactivated after a major hardware change:
