Windows 7 free or genuine? - Ant - 2014-08-03 10:10
Hi guys,
Need a little help here because I'm going to order my gaming pc before long and I'm not to sure if I should get the free downloadable one or the genuine one. The free downloadable would be great be It seems very untrustworthy and unreliable but on the other hand that £40 can make a difference on what i could spent it on. So if any of you guys that use it or have some knowledge about it, please could you help me!
Many thanks!
- Ant

I'd definitely go for the genuine/official, however where can you download it for free (if we are not counting in pirate)?

I've seen things like Daz's windows and stuff like that but looks dodgey as hell.

I've never in my life used a genuine copy of windows even going back to xp. As long as you know what to download you'll be ok. If you need some help on what to download PM me and I'll sort out some links for you Ant and get it fully activated mate

that sounds great but i must know, has anything ever mucked up at all?

Never. Once activated its ready for windows updates and everything. Had this copy of Windows 8.1 since it came out and nothings gone wrong at all.

It's cool, police have seen tons of my pirated films and they don't care, they even ask if it was any good. But i see where your coming from and reminding me the risk, thanks but that's a risk which im willing to take
