Hi. I want to use Windows 7 for free. However, I do not want the want the original Windows 7. I just need a copy of it. So how do I get a copy of Windows 7? Please help me with the same. Reply as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.
Hi. In case you wish to get a copy of Windows 7 and you are confused as to how do I get a copy of Windows 7, then let me suggest you four simple ways-
1) Transfer the Windows 7 from an old computer to a new one
If you want to move the Windows 7 from an old PC to the new one which you just bought, then make sure that this version is not the OEM version. If Windows 7 was already installed when you bought the PC then it is an OEM version and cannot be moved. But, if you yourself downloaded it, then it can be transferred after you uninstall it from the old PC.
2) With the help of the online retailers
The OEM versions of Windows 7 are available with online retailers such as Amazon, NewEgg and TigerDirect and are legal to some extent. Microsoft does not check up on you whether you created it yourself or sold it to some other person so this method works just fine. However, you cannot replace the hardware on your PC using the OEM version without authentication.
3) Using sites like e-Bay
If you want more flexibility than what the OEM version offers, then sites like e-Bay come into picture. You will have to pay more for a licensed-key which has not been used even once as compared to the one which has been used before but that is worth paying for.
4) Get a new computer with Windows 7 installed on it
You can also look at the option of buying a computer with Windows 7 installed on it. If you do not find Windows 7 installed, you might go in the section of business computers in which Windows 7 is widely sold.
Hope we helped.
