Hello, I took out an old laptop from my closet, Windows won't start anymore and there's no way to recover it. I have the license and the key, it's Windows 7 Home Premium OA 64 Bits.
Where could I find it? It's not available anywhere, thanks.

    Search for ISO Windows 7 on Google and you will find it.

      Hello,

      Nothing is less certain: this is an OEM license for which there was a hidden recovery partition and possibly a system CD if it was created during the initial uses.

      There are no longer any official Windows 7 ISOs from Microsoft; some unofficial sites offer reliable copies of these ISOs, but none to my knowledge in OEM unless you want to take risks on "under-the-counter" sites.

      A standard Windows Home Premium ISO will normally not accept an OEM license.

      So, if you really want to run the beast on Windows 7, the simplest solution is to buy the license for the version of your choice online for a few euros and then download the corresponding ISO.

      Provided, of course, that you have a driver CD or that they are still available for this model from Asus, and also that the unspecified malfunction is software-related and not hardware-related.

      Thank you very much, Brucine, it really helped me. So I'm going to buy a license for Windows 7 because my laptop won't support anything higher. Thanks a lot for this clear and precise information.
      Case closed, thank you!
