I have a buddy of mine that just brought me a new windows 8 gateway computer and he wants a fresh install of windows 8.
But all I have is the windows 8 pro upgrade dvd that I downloaded from Microsoft when I upgraded my personal pc. My buddy's new gateway is windows 8 (non pro)
Also there is no product key sticker, from what I have researched the product key is hard coded in the bios, so I doubt my windows pro upgrade dvd would work.
Is there a windows 8 oem dvd available for download somewhere so I reinstall it fresh that would work with the product key that is hard coded in the bios?
I really don't want to get it through bit torrent as Im not sure I could trust that its safe. All I want is a pure windows a dvd that would work for a fresh install on a oem windows Pc
