Genuine/valid copy of Windows in Patong

[Coconut Kidd]

Is it possible to find and purchase a genuine/valid copy of Win 7 or 10 in Patong, and if so……where?

[stevenl]

I have a genuine one, bought from banana it.

^^Thanks, I'll take a look there.

Download the installation media directly from Microsoft (free) and buy a legal installation key online from them or from the likes of Amazon etc. Discounted recycled installation keys from the EU are also available legally on auction sites.

Banana IT, powerbuy, IT city etc, upstairs in junceylon. 

Also, So long as you have a copy of windows running you can use the links within windows to take you to the shop and activate/buy a new product key.

Dragging up this topic again. I need a copy of Windows 7 OS. Banana IT don't have a version this old. I did buy Windows 8 but only works on a 64 bit processor and my old PC is 32 bit so this not work. 

 

I need a CD to reboot my old desktop. Any suggestions,  anyone got a disk lying about here in Phuket that I can buy, hire, borrow ?  I am fed up taking the tower unit to BigC for them to reboot as they queue the job for 3 or 4 days.

Download the version you require from a mirror of the old Digital River site.

Last time I used this site the hashes checked out as genuine MS .iso

Neddless to say these are 'uncracked' so need a a product key to activate.. (or some other way)

Should have noted that these are torrent downloads.

This is where I got Windows 10, the real deal, authentic, etc. It was a bit more expensive then online download, but I have copy in hand and it was easy to install.

Guess I at least have half brain, due to that I´ve worked with computer since it was Win98 as an Op.
Consider yourself lucky. There are a lot of copies on Lazada. Just a warning to other people.

Thanks, but it was not to impress you. Let´s say over 30 years, so we were actually at the stage of Windows 3.11 and Workstation.
Also working actively with new versions of Windows and around 6 versions of Linux. Just tell me if you have any questions, and I will try to answer them as easy as possible for you.

Yes my first PC was Windows 3.1 circa 1986/7 Really manual operation command inputs ,,,, and only 640 kB memory. Think of that 0.64 MB. Windows 95 was a god send.

[stevenl]

I got one, give me a PM. I'm in Kata tomorrow.

[LivinginKata]

Sending PM now

Got installation disc from Stevenl - but looks like the hard disk gone tits up. Oh well off to Amorn when they open 10.00 tomorrow. See if the can recover my files - most backed up. Time to buy a 64 bit processor.

 

Thanks Steven and all who answered.

Amazing wit, simply amazing.

Banana It (Big C) also sells the activation codes (legit) separate without the installation drive.

Download Win 10 from the Microsoft website and use the activation code to activate it.

Works great and it's a littler but cheaper too.
