hope you all had a merry xmas......
i got a new sony vaio ultrabook running windows 8, its touch screen or you can use the keyboard, smart wee bit of kit, still trying to get my hed round it, it has office 2010 on it but i dont have a product key for it, it has'nt got that windows sticker thing on the bottom of it, like my toshiba laptop which runs windows 7, i thought all windows stuff had that sticker on them, as my old desktop even has a sticker and thats xp, anyway i was trying to get all my mail in one place like i do on the old toshiba, but it is only letting me have one hotmail account on it, it wont let me add my vermin account, i have put in the pop3 and smtp, port numbers for in and out, which i got on the vermin site, but it says it cant connect the account, so i have to go on to the toshiba to check my mail rather than going to vermin mail ect, wondered if anyone had any ideas on how to set the mail up on this vaio, thanks in advance
 
The sticker will be under the battery my laptops got it there anyway. Use thunderbird for email all you need is your email address and password and it will automatically srt the pop3 settings etc
 
Windows 8 does not ship with a COA sticker.

You can use this utility to get your product key:
