| Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. SP-1 8,757 posts Northern Ohio | If the disk you use in the exact same system as your COA yes you can. Example: Windows 7 Home Premium/64 disk and a COA key that reads the same Windows 7 Home Premium/64. When you buy Windows operating system the COA is what you are really paying for. That gives you the right to use the operating system on the disc where/wheir ever it came from. This will also be of great help. Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 |

The English version of that is X17-58997.iso. You need to download whatever version matches your product key. No more, no less. |
