So, in other words, click on the link I provided above! to be honest it looks like I'd be as well buying a new tower and getting the copy of windows (plus the 1yr guarantee, the antivirus stuff, the online storage, etc. etc. etc.) I mean, if the doodad costs £70 and an entirely new (and powerful) pc costs £400, it seems reasonable expense to upgrade everything...

That's usually the best way to do it but it all depends how out of date your current PC is. The new O/S will only cost you £40 btw, so if your existing machine has a good enough spec then 40 vs 400 is a no brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenL 0 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 How come you don't get Windows disks these days? I need to restore my laptop right back to the beginning but because I didn't make a checkpoint back in the beginning the only way to do it is reinstall Windows but I need the disk?
