    After reading many articles in this section (and rest of forum) things are getting more complex then i thought. Or maybe not? This is what i want to try and i think it is legal...

    At work I have acces to many DELL optiplex 7010 (e.g service TAG:28703751050). No admin rights -but can acces cmd and see the legal key info. They all have a Win 7 PRO KEY sticker on it. But on all is Windows 7 Enterprise installed with VLK. I think they never used the Win7 Pro which comes preinstalled with dell.

    If i use original Windows 7 Pro ISO + DELL certificate + key from sticker and use it on my self made home pc it will work without using a toolkit or pico or loader? Following one of the guides on mdl...

    Thx!

    These keys are for OEM Dell machines only and not on a self made or home PC. But they can be used with a modified bios :)

    The Volume License agreement for installing Windows Enterprise is considered an upgrade, and requires a valid license existing on the machine. That, plus the fact that it's an OEM sticker permanently for that machine, makes what you want to do in violation of the license agreement.

    Just pointing that out.

    Your best bet is KMS with GVLK, or modified BIOS with certificate and OEM:SLP key.

    OK, so using this key is a no go for me. I am not gonna mess with the bios.
    Just wondering if this was an opportunity for an 'almost' legal Windows 7 and upgrade to Win10.

    Old school loader will do just fine then. Gonna read the guides from mdl again and will try to do it by myself (instal original M$ ISO, use loader and kms). I used very good Windows iso files from a website (PM for this one) and they were activated and had some additional software preinstalled. They did a great job on all those images. All looks good and worked fine untill Outpost security shows me connections from KMS Pico that i do not trust. Think they didi not use the original KMS.

    So i wanna do a clean install on my home pc using the KMS from mdl. Think thats the only way to make sure there are no infections on my system :biggrin:

    If you're going to be upgrading to Windows 10 then you can simply install Windows 7, activate it with Windows Loader and then perform the upgrade. You'll never need to use KMS if you do it this way, even if you reformat your hard drive.

    no promotions here....just don't trust the AIO iso. Easy to use and probably a lot of malware behind the windows.
    Maybe the makers of those iso files are also members of mdl? o_O
    I don't know.

    The first is clearly a promotion and the second is distrusting them ;)

    Why would someone want it if you already distrust that release(team) yourself?

    Maybe someone from mdl knows this team. Just google 'wicked4all'. It is an info domain. Maybe this team has members from mdl? I don't know.
    Because the make Unattended software relaeses it is hard to find out whats going to be installed.

    I think the releases are just fine. Seems they have contact with heldigard @ MDL in the credits.
    OK, no need for panic :p
