Hey all,
I've purchased all the components for my new build. I'm just wondering is this will a) work - b) is legal
If I download a Windows 7 HP 64 bit iso - and then install it [first install] onto my new build, I will have no product key and no genuine software at this point.
So if I then buy Professional anytime upgrade, [and use it] will that then mean I have an active, genuine, normal working OS on my computer?
Thanks,
Cen
BTW- if this is illegal, I am only asking for advice out of curiosity, if it isn't illegal, but wont work then I also won't do it.
If the answer is yes to both questions then ofc I'm going to do it! [just thought I'd cover my back]
