Perhaps you didn't read my post properly.:)
In his 28 Jan 12 post#2 here the OP has stated that emachines had sent him the Windows 7 Disc."I called eMachines and they sent me a copy of Windows 7"
That is what I had mentioned and asking the OP to try installing with it. It could be the OEM Reinstall disk in which case it may autoactivate.
( Why would they send the Recovery Disks/Reinstall disks again and again ? I am assuming that it is the same machine for which emachines sent the Windows 7 Disc. He hasn't bought a new licence for Windows 7. He has only downloaded the Windows 7 ISO from Digital River, as far as I can gather.)
