    Returning a Laptop / Installing Win7 on New One?


    Hello

    I had a Sony laptop which came pre-installed with Vista (but there was no operating system disk supplied).

    I purchased Windows 7 Full Home Edition which I installed on this laptop.

    Now this laptop has become faulty, so I need to return it back to the company that sold it to me. I'll need to return it with Windows 7 on it since I can't downgrade it back to Vista (since I don't even have an installation disk for Vista as previously mentioned).

    The seller has agreed to ship me a replacement. My question is will I be able to install my copy of Windows 7 on my new laptop since I already installed and activated it on the one thats now being returned. If not, what could I do?

    Probably will have to do Phone activation with Microsoft & explain about your returned laptop.
