regalis Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 okay... im confused. My dad is getting the old pc with a new psu, and we bought windows 7 home premium OEM for him. Will i be able to use the OEM to format my hdd after it has been installed on my dad's pc? or do i have to get the retail for that?

You should have no prob using that disk just to format your hd, but what are you using for your os ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wevsspot Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Reg, if you have a valid and legal windows license key on "your" pc (and not being used on any other PC), you can download a digital copy of the corresponding version of Windows 7 from My Digital Life.

regalis Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Well its been a while since we got that pc... and if i recall correctly then our computer "nerd" friend that build the system, installed windows but didnt register and applied a crack of some sort. So if i format the drive using my Windows 7 HomePremium disk do i then have to register windows again, or do i have to get another windows 7 disk, or simply reaply a crack (yup i know that's not legal ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wevsspot Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Reg - as Spike pointed out we do not discuss or condone "cracking" or any other illegal activity. How you go about getting a legit copy of Windows installed is up to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
