Hmm..so yea..I need a windows license. Any ideas where i can get it cheap? I can either go for license only for xp (although i want the whole disc it dun matter) or windows home edition... make sure its a dependable place...
If you go to school, you should have a licensed MSDN A+ certified teacher around somewhere. Hit 'em up. They will hook you up with a Serial and a burnt copy of whatever Windows you want. Other than that, all you got to do is look up ISO's on the internet and then print lists of serials.
Hmm...well I know one teacher that deals with pc's. I'll talk to him maybe, but i think he only got 98 so he might not be able to help..although in another one of his rooms i think he got XP... thanks for the idea.. btw is this fine? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16837102059 Its OEM, so idk what that changes..
Well, you are still paying $88. If you ask your teacher and he don't have anything that you want. Come back here tomorow. Post something and I might be able to find something. (I don't gaurantee I will find anything. I will atleast try to help you though.)
OEM simply means that it is directly from the manufacturerer(original equipment manufacturer) and lacks a few extra warantees etc. With an OS it shouldn't really matter as long as you don't loose the key.
Ok thanks... and I cant even use warez typa things cuz if i go to the activation log, it says its allready been activated...then it logs me off....must of been that damn warez of my own. I may just backit up and reinstall the windows trial..
Too bad thats illegal The copies the school have are not educational liscenses and cant just be given away like that.
Actually, the programs you find at school are all for educational purpousos. (In the classes where the company sends them to train with the software, OS, firmware.) In thus case you can tell your teacher you want to set up a particular program, OS, etc. up on your computer as a learning utincile. Everyone knows that saying you are using it to "learn" is normally a lie. Just make it sound like you are using it to learn. Heck! You might learn from it anyways. Now, they will burn the copy of the program (if you have a nice teacher willing to do this) or they will let you burn a copy from school. They will let you take it home and install it on your computer. I have no idea where you got your information from because that is completely legal. Besides, it wouldn't all be a lie.
yeah, i have Windows XP Pro w/ SP2 Corporate that I got as a gift from when I was doing Intern with the techs at my college. only needs a serial, no activation shi t. I also have an x64 version that i got off the bt. don't know if it works yet, lol. I still need to get a x64 motherboard and cpu... And just recently, I got Windows XP Pro "Stripped to the Bone Edition". yeah, a hacked version. It took all of the extra crap XP runs and threw it out. It's a whopping 170mb CD... No Serial needed, No activation needed. One problem is, though... you cannot get updates very easily, being that it is not a genuine Windows OS.. If this is considered talking about warez, I'm sorry. delete my message then.
well, ask your teacher, and i guess you can get it on the internet, and btw the new egg website, i heard of it, srtest.com recomends you buy things from there if you have a bad video drive or sumthing so i guess you can trust it
Fortunately I have a program that updates it easily..but lets not talk about pirated stuff I recommend this http://www.appscd.com/ awesome site. Win Xp Pro $15 You cant go wrong, I know a guy who bought some other prog off it no problemo.
Ok here's the deal. Note form... -I reinstalled windows...and the activation is now reset... -All my old files are still there. -I cant use many if not all, cuz of missing dll files. -Did i accidentally create a new partions..xD, nah i only got one c drive, there would be more i believe. -The other user accounts are still there...
