How do I get windows 8 onto a brand new computer using my old computor

ItsPuck · Jul 6, 2016

I need a cheap way to get windows 8/10 onto my new computer using a flash drive or something because I don't have a CD reader on my computer, so if someone could paste a link to a cheap windows 8 or 10 download spot that would be much appreciated

Use this. Instructions or expandable on the page itself. Once you have your USB, check this page out for using windows 10 for "free." :

Also, you can buy a win 10 key for $30 here:

I'd be weary of those cheap W10 keys.

I've been using several of them for months without a hitch.

At the end of the day, any time you bargain-hunt you are taking a risk. Sure they could be generated keys, but this is the risk we take to avoid paying full price ($100+).

Sorry, can't justify it in any way if they were generated keys. They are probably student keys that could be disabled. I'd rather spend my money the right way and have no worries.

And I respect your opinion. OP asked for "a cheap way to get windows 8/10 onto my new computer" which is what I've provided. A "free" way too if the risk of a generated key doesn't sit well with him/her.

ItsPuck :

If you have a product key for it, yes. Otherwise you may need to call Microsoft and see if they can transfer the license.
