Back in 2012, there was a thread on here that said something like: download windows 8 (with a link) use this "trial" key to install register to get a media center key and use that key to activate windows 8 I have that media center key and had to reload my PC. Now i cant seem to get the correct edition of windows 8 installed so i can use the media center key. Anybody know where that thread is on the forum?
