Clean Install Windows 7

[something]

Something I have done before... I cannot find the Windows 7 ISO file to load onto a USB so that I may clean install Windows 7. Any help on this?

Pretty well hidden. Makes me wonder if this is a tactic to push consumers into upgrading.

Hello!

I'm looking for a clean w7 pro ISO file as well. I have an OEM key but the DELL ISO offered will not let me activate over phone. Any help or suggestions that lead to fixing this will be greatly appriciated! Thank you!

Do you need x86 or x64 version?

64 bit

I found this site - http://getintopc.com/softwares/opera...iso-32-64-bit/

Once it downloads I'll check its intergrety. In the comments it seems people have already done that but it is still a good idea. ... 6 more hours to go at the super fast download speed of 30 - 60 kbps!

I just built a new PC and need a win7 key. You guys have a recommendation for a cheap key? I haven't put in a disc drive yet, so putting an ISO on a key is helpful too, thanks!

Since Microsoft removed the free download earlier this year they also made some changes to the usb/dvd iso maker. So don't use that. I spent an entire day trying to fix it. If you're using a usb then make sure every usb is unplugged (except your keyboard and mouse) or it will not install. This was a fun problem to figure out.

I used MMOGA but I haven't completed the process yet. So I don't have this as a recommendation. They sent me the old instructions and the wrong w7 download (dell). http://www.mmoga.com/

If you're willing to do the research, there are programs that activate windows 7, no need for a key. If you upgrade to 10, you become completely legit... But uh... for a legit cheap key? There are some people selling "crap" computers on Kijiji for like $50 or less. Find one with a key you can "port" to your new PC? Perhaps you can even walk into a Bestbuy, staples etc. and see if they have any recycle computers you can quickly snap a pic of the Win 7 key with your phone?
