I'm setting up a computer for a friend without an optical drive, so I need a reliable source to purchase Windows 8.1 Professional 64-Bit. For installing GPU drivers and other components, I’ll need guidance on finding compatible drivers and setup steps. Let me know if you'd like help with that! -Croum
You purchase when you don't need a working key, it's just a mess - darude - sandstorm
Purchase it from your nearby shop, then refer to this manual for the USB: http://sandybridge.me/index.php/2015/08/...ta788-110/ 2) I recommend choosing 10 Pro over 8.1 3) obtain the latest drivers from the maker's website.
I suggest checking out MicrosoftSoftwareSwap on Reddit; they’ve managed to bring in several keys from buyers and everything worked smoothly.
I recommend buying a Windows 8.1 key from eBay, only £12.50 and then create a bootable USB using Microsofts tool. After you have it installed it you still have the option to upgrade to Windows 10 for free. Much better than buying a Windows 10 key for retail price.
You might choose a Windows 10 key because it’s often available at a lower cost online, with regular updates included, while local shops usually charge extra for the same product. Buying digitally saves money and ensures you get the latest features.
