Windows 8 Trial New Build question

patrioticknight · Jan 11, 2014

I'm in the process of building a PC, is there a way to use a trial version of windows 8 before I purchase windows 8, if so, can I access and download the windows 8 os trial on the new pc build?
Regards

If you find a legit windows 8 ISO file online, you can load it onto a USB and install without a key. This will allow you to use for like 30 days.

Thanks for the quick reply newman, can you point me in the right direction as to where I could get this, if possible? Kind Regards

The only 'trial' version of Windows 8 is currently this one, Windows 8.1 Enterprise.

There is no '30 days before you have to enter the key' thing like there used to be with Windows 7.

When you do go to buy, that "Enterprise" is not the version you want. So be prepared for a full reinstall of 8.1 or 8.1 Pro.
