    Purchase a windows 7 ultimate 64 bit key


    Can someone advise me of a reliable download site where I can purchase a windows 7 ultimate 64 bit key. Some of the sites I'm seeing advertised are 3 months on the market and that doesn't give me much confidence without references. I downloaded a verified ISO of Win7 Ultimate from Digital River and using the USB tool from MS I've loaded a bootable install file on to a USB drive. So all I need is a legitiment Key. Any help appreciated.

    Thank you for your reply.
    Yes, that's true but I was hoping to be able to download it. I haven't found any merchants on Amazon which provide a download service.

    You don't download keys. You install Windows and then it asks you to type your key.
    If you were hoping to download Windows 7, there is nothing stopping you from downloading the original Microsoft discs and then purchasing a key to use with them.

    Hi,
    It's better and more reliable to have the disk set
    There's allot of things that can go wrong with a download especially one that large,

    Hogwash.

    My downloads and my USB media have stood the test of time. My original Microsoft discs are all slowly wearing. When I initially bought the RTM version of XP x64, I made a copy of it that to this day performs better than the actual disc in terms of both speed and CRC issues.

    I didn't even bother after I heard my Windows 7 disc skip once or twice. From now on I'll stick to downloads and alternative storage, thanks!

    The best prices I see are on Tiger Direct, $89 for Home Premium, $139 for Professional. But no download, you can install now from the Win7 Downloads links in Step 1 of http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technol...download-links burned to CD or flash stick with tool in Step 2, and install the key when it arrives which gives you some time to see if you like the install.

    I don't think Microsoft allow the keys to be sold by themselves anymore. I don't know if there are any sites that will sell the keys by themselves or not in an OEM kit of some sort, so you might have to consider going to a store or just ordering and waiting.

    Different here at my place.
    I always went to a retail outlet and bought Windows 98, 98SE, XP PRO and Windows 7 a couple of times. They all worked as they should.

    I have no idea how one would wear one of Microsoft's operating systems disc out.
