Install Windows 8 Pro without a physical disk by using a USB drive or cloud installation tools.
You just received a Windows 8 Pro key from eBay. Since you don’t have the installation media, you can use a USB drive or CD to install it. Just follow the setup instructions provided with your key.
Download the Windows USB installation tool from the official Microsoft website.
Install the utility on a functional machine and complete the setup wizard. It will request a product key, then prompt whether you wish to create a DVD or flash drive. Ideally your key should be genuine, as third-party keys won’t function with this tool. If needed, I can locate an alternative download.
You'll receive the key soon. This version is intended for retail use and should avoid being an OEM product.
The provided connection appears to be tailored specifically for Windows 7.
It should function on Windows 8, provided that's the version you're using.
