I work from home with industry specific software that is not compatible with Win 8.1. My Win 7 computer started having issues and this was the best I could do, having missed 3 days of production already. How can I get a product key for Win 7 to install on this computer? I do not have a touchscreen, just a plain Jane laptop.

Hi!

If your company doesn't supply you with a license, the easiest and cheapest way of getting it, is to buy it from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/&field-keywords=windows+7

If that Laptop Windows 8.1 is OEM, I suggest contact OEM (laptop manufactured)

If you buy OS separately, try to contact Microsoft Activation regarding Downgrade rights
