Experinced tech needs activation,upgrade advice
I have a customer that obtained several Hp\Compaq notebooks. The disk drives oln all of them have been erased clean and the Windows Vista Business Key stickers have been cut off. I intend to load a version of windows 7 on the notebooks but I don't know much about volume licsensing.
The Ms Windows site says that if the notebooks were loaded with a previous version of windows I needed a upgrade with some kind of volume licsense. The notebooks were loaded with Vista Business because I can see enough of the Product Id Sticker to tell so.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Oh by the way I have 50 of these notebooks to fix.
