Need ISO of installation for HP Compaq 8000 Elite Convertibl... - HP Support Community

Hi,

I've bought second hand HP desktops with their original stickers but without the installation DVD.

The original hardware is all there, but the vendor wiped out the drives.

Where can i get the original ISOS for reinstalling Windows 7 ?

Hi

Perhaps Compter Surgeons may have it. http://www.computersurgeons.com/

Is there an OEM licence sticker for W7? If so then perhaps this is a short term solution.

If in doubt please ask.

The HP site doesn't have the ISO for download.

And what do you mean by "a short term solution" in case the OEM licence sticker for W7 is present ?

I do have a sticker saying "Certificate of authenticity" and it has the mention "Windows 7 Pro OA" with the full serial on it.

You can make your own plain W7 installation media since you can read all 25 characters of the W7 product key on your PC's case.

Click on the Windows ISO Downloader.exe link to download the tool to create the W7 ISO file download.

Select the W7 COEM ISO file download version for the product key the OS is good for, which is the OEM operating system ISO file.

I have zipped up and attached the Microsoft utility below, that will allow you to either put the file on a USB flash drive or burn it to a DVD.

Then you can install the drivers and available software you need from your PC's support page.

If the Microsoft tool doesn't work to burn a DVD, use this free DVD burning software to burn the ISO file to a DVD.

Select the "Burn ISO file option."

Burn it at the slowest speed you can.

Hi

I don't understand your situation. Is this not what you want?
