    Reinstall W7 OS on laptop


    My laptop comes with a lot of crapware on it so I was wondering if I could just use my other copy of W7 Home Premium that I bought for my desktop, install it on my laptop, and use the product key on the home premium sticker on the bottom of my laptop?

    I have an HP. I would like to run a nuke disc and start off with a clean hard drive so that way my computer will run the best.
