Hello, I purchased a computer on eBay with windows 7 professional 64 bit. I bought a new 1TB hard drive to put in it to get rid of any data the previous owner may have had on it. I would like to use the new hard drive and then do a clean install of windows while keeping the activation true. Is there any way to do this? If not what means should I do it by? Any help? Thanks guys!

Then you can go here and download the version of Win7 you have the product key for.

It will be an .ISO file that will allow you to burn a Windows Installation disk to DVD. It will allow you to have a legal copy of Win for 30 days... or permanently if you have a product key to use to activate it with Microsoft.

Side note: Microsoft has a program called the "Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool" that will allow you to download the iso clutchc gave you, and step by step helps you make it into a bootable disk or USB. It's always worked well for me and is quite easy to use.
