• Where can I get the ISO for Windows 7 Professional edition 64-bit (Spanish)

  Hello

  I can't find a link to download the ISO of Windows 7 professional 64-bit Spanish edition.

  I have a license key and I would like to burn a DVD with this iso, where can I find it?

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

• can't buy the key to Windows Media Center

  I am trying to add the Media Center functionality to my installation of Windows 8 Pro.  I go through the motions of purchasing the key and after I sent my details (I tried paypal and credit card) I get the message saying "sorry we were not able to complete your order...

  We were not able to check your order online.  Please buy a product key from a retailer close to you. »
  Now, I would be happy to go to a store and spend $9.99 for a WMC key except cannot be bought in the shop.  The only way to buy the key of the WMC is via "Add features" in my Windows 8 Pro.
  A Microsoft person please explain what is happening and perhaps I can buy the elusive WMC key?
  Thank you
  Nick

  Hi Nick,

  I apologize for the difficulty that you have faced all trying to buy Media Center for Windows 8 Pro pack feature key.

  In the present case is apparently caused by an error either in the Microsoft Account, you use the method of payment set up in this account.

  Both of your posts, I couldn't know if payments have crossed in the attempts you have made to buy the feature pack. I believe that the payment would not, however, if it is different, please let us know.

  Try using a different credit card when buying the feature pack? This could cause questions sometimes.

  The next step, I would suggest would be to use an another Microsoft Account to connect to Windows 8 Pro and try to add the feature pack for this account. You can create a new user in your Windows 8 Pro against another email address that you may have and check if you are able to add the feature pack for this account.

  In addition, if you have a student Email ID, you could try to create a user account on the computer in the face of this E-mail ID and check if that allows you to buy and add the feature pack.

  I'll wait to see if these steps help you to solve this problem. Don't let us know the State, we are happy to be of assistance. Have a good day ahead!

• Can I reuse my key msdnna on the same computer

  I was a student at community college where I received the key to Windows xp msdnna. I installed this key and the operating system on my laptop. Now my laptop is very slow. I want to reinstall new Xp on the same laptop computer.

  question 1 > can I use my same XP key old msdnna that I had used the same laptop a few years back.

  Question 2 > yes f, what happens if I intend to buy a new hard drive for more capacity for my laptop even and then I can install xp with the same old msdnna key?

  The MSDN AA key is only for a PC each time. Are based on the license that you got you might be able to reinstall it in another PC, but you must make sure format you it. You could install it in your PC even if you wish. However, I suggest to discuss this with your campus or contact Microsoft Support to make sure that you follow the licensing policy in your country.

  If you buy a new hard drive in the same laptop you can always reuse your Windows XP product key.

  I did a restore of windows xp home 64-bit but not recover my registry key.  How can I get the key?

  There is no such thing as Windows XP 64-bit Edition.  OEM machines are supposed to have a sticker with the product key on the computer somewhere.  You never did a full backup or an image of the disc on another drive?  If so, the key can be retrieved from the backup or image.
