you are welcome , enjoy the legal Win 8kuduku thank you very much. I was planning to buy Windows 8 upgrades for the whole family. It could have costed me around 5k-6k. But thanks to you I have saved a lot of hard-earned money. I appreciate your post very much.
Please write down what all you did for clarity , no one has had any issues so far so must be at own end so it needs to be cross checkedkuduku any help will appreciate mate
I am planning to install Win 8 on a spare laptop HDD I have just to have a feel of it.
After using it for a months, I will install it on my main HDD.
How many times I can install Win 8 with same key and activate it ?
Unlimited on same machine . After 10 times call up MS and get phone activation
I want to try it on my laptop with a spare hard disk before installing it on my desktop. For laptop, I am getting official Win 8 upgrade for Rs.699/-.
Will I loose one key in process of this trial ?
kuduku,I need some clarification. As per what I remember, Microsoft's EULA allowed you to use a single-user license on any machine as long as it was on only one machine. What if the machine that I am currently using Win8 on dies out, won't I be able to use the same key on another new machine? Of course I do not intend to use the same license on 2 machines at the same time.yes , full hardware/machine cannot be changed
If your motherboard gets changed or dies down . You call up MS on phone activation and tell them the same . They will allow give the activation code and allow install on changed hardware machine . I have never done this but this is correctkuduku,I need some clarification.
