My HDD died about 3 weeks or so ago and I finally replaced it today then went to install Win7 back on it (its an older machine I Intend not to upgrade this one) well lo and be hold my key went missing cant find the thing after looking for longer than I should have to. I remember somebody mentioning in another thread a reputable site to go to and purchase legit keys for OS's but like an idiot I cannot find it. Could somebody post me a link or 2 I can check out?

Thanks and very much appreciated  :D

@techguru.

Its a Dell Inspiron 1720. Intel T7770 @ 2.4GHz, CPU 4GB RAM, NVidia GT660M  Still runs well for being 10yrs old.  :D

It will run Win10 as I used this to run the Win10PT. Handled the preview like a champ.

 

The main hdd finally failed and I told my wife I would give it to her after the Win10 release so I am putting it back to Win7 per her request.

 

 

Never used reddit before. How do I order?

No, she just likes the Win7 and she is used to it. She doesn't really care if it is upgraded either way but being her I would have to teach her how to use the New OS and with my current work schedule it wont happen anytime soon. This is what she knows so it easier on me and beside I can update it later when need be.
