Hi,

I'm genuine Windows 7 Ultimate Retail Copy DVD pack owner from yesterday.

My question is if I restore my windows7 by using the method 2, Am I need to Re-Activate the copy again ?

Yes, I have the full installation disc but don't want to use those original DVD now & then cause I'm worried about damaging my disc.

How many time a Retail Copy user eligible to activate his copy online ? (I read the whole tutorial of this forum 'How to activate windows in phone').

Please anyone.....Thanks in advance.

Welcome!

Downloading the ISO and burning it to a CD is the same as creating one manually in Windows. You should not need to reactivate, but if you do, and it does not accept your key, activate by telephone.

Thank You Sir clearing my doubts.....

But I also want to know is there any specific info/documentation page about this:

Like quota or anything....etc

After reading the tutorial in this forum, I feel it very cumbersome job to Activate copy via phone.

**Jonathan_King** · 03-16-2010

I'm not sure about that one. I haven't seen any definite numbers. All I know is that sometimes activation online is successful, and sometimes you need to call.

Thanks, Shawn.

Took some swimming, since the tutes here are as widespread as the ocean.

hi why is the burning of a iso file to a dvd disc in vista, would it make a difference whether window 7 or vista and how many dvd discs would you need to complete the burning. also i'd like to ask is there a tutorial on how to use the discs?

Hello battosai, and welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

The "System Repair" disc just has some tools to use in repairing a damaged OS. The files are less than 200 MB and so will all fit on one CD. A DVD is not needed.

Here are 2 links to some of what the disk will do:

Repair CD - System Repair Disk

and

System Recovery Options

Windows 7 and Vista are similar but they are not exactly the same so there is no guarantee the utilities written for Vista will work the same for 7. Since Windows will create and burn the "Repair CD" for you, it might be a good idea to have both the Vista and 7 versions?

Cheers!
Robert
