So i bought my PC 2nd hand and the guy didnt have the key anymore. It was a cutom built pc and windows is legit. Ive looked online and on here and found a few ways to get the key, however of the 5 ways ive tried, ive gotten 4 different keys (2 were the same) .  So which key is correct, should i just try and install win on a 2nd HDD and try each key?

 

thanks for all the help :)

Wait do you want to find out what the key is for the computer?
