I needed to download the ISO for Windows 7 Home premium, but it's unavailable.
I tried to do the recovery on microsoft, but my key was from OEM, and not a retail key so it doesn't work. Even though it's legit.


Any safe way to get my hands on this ISO file?

Safest way: Pay Microsoft for a digital download of the disk.

Tried. THey apparently aren't offering it. I have to pay for them to snail mail me a copy.

Fuck it, I ended up just ordering a new laptop.

lol woot what specs was ur old one?

need software -> buy new computer

reminds me of my grandmother. the tv remote ran out of batteries and quit working, so she bought a new tv

It was about 5 years old. Old toshiba satellite. Intel i3, 4 gigs of ram, 400Gig hard drive

New one is a Lenovo, i7, 16 gigs of RAM, 1Gig HDD, 128g SSD.



My old laptop was dying fast anyway

Good idea if other of was dying

Use DBAN to wipe the old laptops hard drive and sell it on ebay before it dies.

I heard that even formatting doesn't erase everything.
How does that work?
