Windows 8 (geniune copy)
« on: January 11, 2016, 07:02:35 PM »
Happy new Year to everyone (first and foremost) (100). Now, does anyone know of a place (or places) that you can purchase a genuine copy of Windows 8. I want to get one for my laptop so that it will be legit, and not an OEM version. Any advice? Thanks in advance.

why not just upgrade to windows 10 with the oem version. I doubt they wont let OEM versions upgrade but let pirate version do.

Slaming I was considering it, but I will have an unactivated version of windows 10. OEM version are generally for system builders and developers, they aren't really for personal use.

That will be swell trinixaeno, but how much does it cost to replace the hard drive though?

Why do you want to replace the hard drive?

Since OEM versions are on computer permanently once they are activated, the only way (I currently) know it to replace the hard drive with a new one and do a genuine installation, or am I missing something. Feel free to correct me because I could be wrong.

Dude you should be able to go from 8 to 8.1 for free, then once that is done upgrade to 10 for free
Check you laptop manufactures website as they usually have a free upgrade path to Windows 10. With Windows 10 once you upgrade, you will not need a key as it will utilize your hardware for verification if you want to do a clean install later on. 

You will not need to change your hard drive as the win 8 key is usually stored in the bios on 2012 and present laptops.

If I were you I would see if Xaeno or one of the GATT staff would assist you with the upgrade process as they offer a Tech service for a fee.
