Hello, ive recently purchased a pc and i havent got enough money to buy windows 7 yet, so if there is a possible way to get windows 7 for free could someone recommend a source to me. PS i am planning to purchase windows 7 in the near future and do a restart, but for the time being i need it asap !! thanks

Discussion of warez is not allowed on TTG.

HOWEVER, you can use Windows 7 for free in trial mode for up to 120 days with the legal download for the disk image. This will give you plenty of time to get a copy.

When the 30 day trial runs out, you can reset it up to three times by running "slmgr -rearm" in the command line and rebooting.

New PCs usually come with an OS (as well as other software and drivers from the manufacturer) installed already.

If you install an un-licensed copy of Windows, it will let you use it without bothering you for 30 days. If it does immediately give you the "Windows is not genuine" thing at the bottom right, just run the re-arm command, reboot, and it will go away for 30 days.

You're right; it will not. Hard drives ship blank.

Download windows 7 iso and use usb/dvd tool and then on bios make sure it starts up from your usb and install from there!

Windows download (home premium 64 bit) this is a legit download you will need a key past 30 days.

Usb/dvd tool:

Im not 100% if you need a key right away or after 30 days, but PM me if you need more help.
