Getting rid of a pirated copy of windows 7
Hi,
I have recently been stupid enough to let someone install a ''genuine'' copy of windows 7 home premium on my computer and now it has all gone wrong, recognising that my copy is not genuine and insisting that I activate the account. Unfortuanetly the system restore does not work and I have tried installing windows 8 preview and ubuntu in order to replace this dodgy copy but nothing seems to work. I have a legit key for windows vista that I would like to go back to but because the system restore isnt working I dont know how to go about doing it. Any help would be massively appreciated.
