I want Win7! I want Win7!

This site offers Win7 Pro for 13.99 GBP.

Has anybody bought this? Or does anyone know a better place?

Do you own a copy of Windows 7 already but don't have the CD?Â* The ISO
is readily available for free, all you need is the CD Key from your old
windows 7.Â*Â* You never gave any info how you got win 10, I'm guessing an
upgrade from 7 or you got the machine that way.

One big issue with going from 10 to 7 on a preloaded machine is drivers.
Â*Investigate that first.Â*Â* No drivers=No workie!

Me personally, I'm not secure with these sites selling $10 copies of
OSs.Â* They could be valid from trashed PCs.

I always shop places like Newegg.com in the US.

Ebay has a lot of them. I question a few of them after reading them,
they may be OEM and from one experience with OEM, it only works on the
PC it was installed on. Moving to another PC does not work as it looks
at the motherboard and verifies it's on the right machine. Dell is
famous for that.
