    Default Vista Home Premium key

    Anyone willing to donate a working one would be greatly appreciated. Its for the fish tank /senior project pc. +Rep to anyone willing to help. Oh and I almost forgot...


    PLEASE NO KEY GENERATED CRAP. I need this to be clean OEM install with no flaws. And I'm not that big of a fan on the T word.

    I could donate a Vista Basic key, but that's all I have. If no one else steps up with a Home Premium, shoot me a MSG.

    If you can't find any donors, and unless you specifically need Vista, you could always go Linux?

    Just an idea.

    @Luke122
    Would a basic key work when installing premium??? Just a question.

    @OvRiDe
    Well I can't use Linux on the fact that the project is a very user friendly home theater media PC. Most of my family is NOT computer savvy. So windows would be the best option for me.

    Ahh.. understood, if thats the case, check out XBMC

    http://xbmc.org/

    There is a live CD that you can try it out without having to install.

    Slick.. I didnt know that XBMC had a standalone live disc! +rep to you good buddy.

    Also, no, the basic key would only work for vista basic. I was just offering it in case no one else had a premium one, so you would at least have an OS.

    I second going XBMC, or even going Linux + XBMC. XBMC is killer.. clean and super easy to use.

    Linux and XBMC would be sweet! No learning curve to it either. If they can use a remote, they can use XBMC.

    Actually, I have a Premium key that I'm not using, if you still want it. If you end up going XBMC, no harm done, just don't use it
    I don't have it on me right now, but I'll PM it later today.

    Ok, thanks cvitullo. I'm still going to need one one way or anyother. So thanks to you aswell. +Rep.

    EDIT: The key that I used from another friend is already in use. So I can't use that one. So as said above cvitullo, if you still have the key and are willing to donate it, give me a PM. Thanks again.
