Hi All ,
I purchased a Acer Aspire 4750 Laptop from SE Asia.
It had been pre loaded but after a while it went wrong the bootmgr appeared with a black screen.
A few months back i did a reinstall with and ISO Image once installation was complete it said it was a copy of Windows 7 and i had to input key number but i couldn't find one .There was No key number on Laptop and nothing when i used the jellybean utility also used utilities to extract original Key number.... going deep into the system there was no number. It must of been a fake windows 7 installation when i bought it .As they set it all up at the time in Thailand.
So i purchased a OEM for 1 user only which could only be used on my PC Laptop and installed it with the Key number so all is Genuine Windows now.
Now i have a Caution issue with ChystalDiskinfo from testing the Hard Drive reallocated sector 6 count and current pending sector count 8 .So i would like to to get a replacement Hard Drive before it fails.
Would i encounter any problems by installing a New Hard Drive and then installing the OEM Windows 7 ? would the key still be valid to successfully activate OEM Windows 7 ?
Is There anything i seem to be over looking in doing this ,do i need anything else ie Repair Disk?
I would be very grateful from anyone's experienced opinion on how to proceed .
Thanks
