UEFI Install of Windows 7 Pro

I think I figured out a way to Dig Out the P. Key. If not, I think I'll Install Windows 7 and run another Key Finder Product to try and get the Key off the BIOS. I'm curious if Key Finder Software will find the Windows 8 Key while running Windows 7? I'm sure I'll be back to this Thread soon.

Thanks for all the help guys! Nasty7

I learned that there are many ways to do this. One with bootable software and with a LiveLinuxSession. Very cool as I already had the Linux in machine and booted up in minutes. Now hoping, (as AddRAM said) I can just install Windows 7, and then Dual Boot with 10 with the Key I dug out of the BIOS.

Nothing is saved on BIOS. When fist activated, M$ saves the LAN MAC address. You don't need the key as when reactivating on same MB (same LAN MAC address) it will recognized as valid.

I'll give it a go!

Okay guys, I'm ready to install Windows 7 PRO! Have a brand new WD Blue 1TB drive ready to go, now where do I start LOL.

1. Turn Off Secure Boot? and what about Legacy and CSM Stuff?

I'm very unfamiliar with UEFI and quite intimidated with it atm. I guess I'm going MBR like has been the best suggestion IMO. Later I will install Windows 10 along side of 7...I think. I have another computer now with 10 on it, but space is at a premium here, so will wait to decide about the Dual Boot with Windows 10.

2. Are there, or have there been issues where Windows 10 Breaks the Boot-loader when Chain-loading/Dual Booting like this with a major Update like the Creators Update?

Either way I am ready to install, so some basic Instructions would be great. I have the Update procedure all figured out so should be good there.

3. How many Primary Partitions will be installed during Windows 7 Install Two?

Thanks, Nasty7

So what do I do exactly?

1. Disable Secure Boot?

2. Enable Legacy Mode?

3. How does CSM fit into all this?
