I have an Archicad 15 full version that is currently installed on very slow laptop HP-32 , I purchased a new laptop Samsung gamers edition w/ NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675 Graphics and Windows 8 I managed to install the CD software but did not managed to install the Code Meter key. I don’t know much about computers can anyone help please. I am afraid of damaging the code meter key

Maybe you should download the latest runtime kit from their site. ArchiCAD 15's Codemeter driver definitely does not support Windows 8. Possibly this latest driver supports it.
I would first uninstall the Codemeter driver ArchiCAD installed, would restart the computer and then install the donwloaded version.

I don't know if anyone used codemeter drivers that were different or newer version than the one that came on the ArchiCAD installation DVD. But if I remember correctly it should work.
