So let me start from the beginning, a while ago I bought a hp pavillion desktop and recently I upgraded, but I have stayed with the same HDD throughout the upgrade so now windows 7 wont boot on it because of the upgrade, I have made multiple posts and my decision is to buy windows 8.1 from g2a and install it, but the only other pc I have is a old celetron vista pc of which I am posting this from, and I was going to get the iso for windows 8 from the iso creator but the creator does not work on windows vista can someone please help.

I can't understand, did you update your os to windows 8.1?

No I replaced my mobo and cpu.

The OEM version that comes with the pc should not work on all hardware, instead it should only work on the first HDD that it came with. If you bought a windows 8 license key, I recommend using Rufus to create a bootable USB to install the iso onto.

Would it be legal for you to make the iso with the windows iso creator for me and give me a download?

yes

Alright, well then go here and get the iso, then enter your product key during setup

Not really, you need to get an iso, which you can burn to a usb. That is the only way if you have the product key.

What do you mean?

If you used the program you linked to get one and if you made a mega download for me would it be legal, I would think so because they have it publicly available but only  to newer os's

Oohh I see what you mean. The download will create an installer but only that can be accessed by your key.

Yea, could you create one and make like a mega download for me?

You have to do it yourself, because the USB drive that you install it on is specific to your pc. You need to do it, it's easy.
