How to reinstall Windows 8 with DVD.

I bought 'Windows 8' 1 year and a half ago. Of course, I have my product key. For reasons that I do not summarize in this first post, I installed Ubuntu and I have more Windows. I would now like to reinstall it but I don't have a cd (I have only the product key). Is there a way to reinstall it without spending more money?

Moved to other/unknown install, upgrade and activate Forum.

  • How do I reinstall Windows 7 with a upgrade disc

    Separated from this thread.

    Hello Bill,

    Is this true with a copy as well upgrade? I brought (bare with me I forgot the details) upgrade 64-bit Windows 7 Home premium from XP I think it is? If I was to reformat my computer would be I reinstall windows using the natures CD upgrade or do I need to reload XP and then update? I'm confused sorry if this doesn't make much sense!

    You can clean install them using the upgrade disc.  Always on the technical side, you need to own a qualifying version of Windows (XP), but that's just a rule of licensing - the older one has need not be actually installed on the drive.

    Since your eMachine has been pre-installed with Windows 7, you must have a recovery partition to reinstall your operating system.  If this isn't the case, they can also provide you with recovery media.  Please see the article here for more information.

    How to reinstall Windows 8

    You have two options:

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

    Option 2:

    If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

    Option 3:

    A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

    See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

    (references Windows 7, but the same principles apply to Windows 8).
