WTB-Windows 7 operating system discs
Anyone have some discs that could be used to "upgrade" Momz brick from the current Vista machine? She has an IBM clone. Doesn't want to buy a new machine as she now has a iPhone 6.....

If she has internet access, can't she download a newer version for free?

I have Dell factory installer disk images somewhere. I think I can get the non dell disks too. Do you have a license key?

A newer version of Vista? The reason I want to get her 7...it's idjut proof and all the browers still support it. W/10 sucks donkey balls.
Firefox, Chrome, IE dropped Vista.

I didn't know the upgrades are done. It was over a year ago that I did the free upgrade to W/10
My computer went from terrible to better than new...couldn't be happier with W/10

What version of 7?
I have some extra keys. I collect old hardware that people dispose of for the license stickers.

I reinstalled XP on an old computer. I needed to grab video off an old camcorder that Win 10 did not recognize. Instead of finding old disks, I was able to download a ISO file of the install disk and make my own. Not sure if this is possible with Win 7.

They sell USB sticks will all of the install files for Windows 7 on Amazon for around $20. And the files cover every flavor of Win 7.
