I bought a DVD of windows 7 and installed in a desktop computer. Unfortunately, my office got fried due to power surges. Now, I want to install it in a new computer. can I turn it on again. Best regards, Anisur Rahman * address email is removed from the privacy *
If your copy of Windows is an OEM (delivered in a cardboard cover, as a single disc) then no. - the license was related to the motherboard of a fist on which it was installed.
If it's a complete detail of the product (fancy box, two discs), then Yes, you can install it in the new - activate by phone.

I bought a laptop with windows 7 family, and updated Edition upgraded to windows 7 Professional, how can I buy the Windows 7 Professional Backup CD?
You can't (unless you want to buy it separately at full price).
Windows 7 uses the "anytime upgrade" feature Because Windows uses image based install now, technically you were always professional, you just had not unlocked it again by typing in the code. If you were ever to re - install your computer, you'd be at the publishing house and just simply type the code again (Don lose it!)
If you wish, you can create your own system image backup. It's more than a Windows installation disc. It is an exact replica of your entire hard drive, including all your programs and settings that you have configured. It's like a photo snapshot in time. This gives you a CD, you can use to immediately restore your computer to the point in time where the image was taken - even all your installation and installs.
If you want to create it, here's how:
- Open Control Panel
- Choose system and security
- Choose the backup and restore
- Choose to create a system image on the left

I want to restore my hp desktop computer that is running windows vista edition Home premium, but I don't have the cd and when I try it files through the windows there not a correct restore date. can someone help me?
Hello
You're confused system recovery and system restore.
System Restore makes the settings from your computer to an earlier date; It will not reinstall the operating system.
System recovery reinstalls the operating system how much you bought your machine; as for the new State.

original title: Windows7 Professional Upgrade
I just bought a new computer running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium with an upgrade to windows 7 Pro. I have the PIN # for the upgrade, but I can't get the site to come www.windows7.com/get key. How to pass?
If your PIN does not work, try the following:
1. check that the PIN has been entered correctly. PIN code is not case sensitive and is alpha-numeric.
2. make sure that the PIN has not already been used to obtain a product key. A PIN can be used only once to get a product key. If the PIN has been used, you can connect to your account with your Windows Live ID (if you have it when the PIN has been entered) to access your product key or you can check your email for the confirmation e-mail, that you have received when the PIN has been consumed to access your product key.
