Ok so basically, I'm building a computer and now I'm trying to figure out how to get an .ISO file of the OS for that build to put on a DVD or USB since I only have the code and I'm not going to buy a windows 8 disc or download for a computer. I am quite confused on where to get a legal copy of those .ISO so I can just easily place in my code. Also, I forgot whether my pin is for windows 8 or 8.1, So I would recommend giving me both methods to get the .ISO file.
I keep seeing Windows 8 (OEM) which I think is recommended for computer builds. But since I'm a bit new at this I can't tell...
Please if you can just help me understand this stuff Windows making stuff complicated for no reason.
