Windows 7 64 bit - Pro

Hi,

 

Anyone know if I can legally purchase Windows 7 Pro 64 bit online?. Need to purchase five licenses for the new sim setup.

 

Thanks

I have to question, given the date, are you not better off waiting a few weeks and buying W10 after some early adopters have tested you're sim of choice on it? If it's FSX or P3D, people already have a very good answer (sorry, I know that's not an answer to you're question)

Hi,

 

Don't like the idea of being forced into taking updates, that is the case with 10. Once my sim is up and running right, I don't want any changes to the O/S that may change that.

Hi Bert,

 

Thanks, not looking for OEM. Unless I missed it on the page.

What is wrong with OEM?

 

I got my copy there..  B)

Hi,

 

My understanding is, once you install the OEM version in your computer and/if your hardware goes bad you cannot install that OEM version on the same computer with new hardware, or any other computer.

After 92 days or thereabouts it resets, or at least it used to.

few month ago I bought win 7 pro 64 on ebay for 25 £ (2 friends did the same). It is OEM and the website seller wrote something like, win 7 belongs to hardware, that is why we sell this with the harddrive /motherboard, which is broken and not working anoymore. To save postage we do not send the harddrive/motherboard but you can pick it up (which noone did). Registration went online quick.

Then I changed my motherboard after a month and needed to register again, this time it did not work online but I need to call a machine and type in some info and confirm that my win7 runs on only 1 computer.

After another month my harddrive broke so I needed to install again and did the same as above, without any problems.

So I can recommend the 25£ version of win 7 -64 prof.

If you call MS, they can reactivate the key for you.
