Hi i got a original Vista CD complete with CD key which i brought from sim lim square, however my cd was damaged, and i didnt make any copies of it, The worst thing was that i was unable to get a replacement disk from MS, due to MS, due to my copy being OEM, MS SAID that it was my responsiblity to make my own backup copies.....
As i have a orignal CD key and paided about 129 for my license and cd key, could anyone kindly pass me a copy or give me a back up copy? Its completely legal, as i OWN THE orignal license, i paid 129 for some really unfair EULA 'laws' from MS, really pissed off. I am willing to pay good money for a backup copy. Thanks
i can only use a backup copy of vista home premium 64 bit, as i called ms, and they said that my backup copy MUST be the same as the one i brought
why didn't you try climbing it and put in the key inside? o.o

I do not want anyone to flame the ts for asking this qn, flaming like:
- am i hearing wrongly?
- Microsoft asked you to create a backup. aka Duplicate.
- It's illegal to burn, on the cd of vista xxx/ microsoft office xx , it said " do not make illegal copies of this disc"
I have called Microsoft (Singapore) and verified that this is legal, as no replacement would be given if you misplace the disc ect. However, it is on a basis that you do not distrubute it. Along with the Cd key.

Yep. If you bought premium 64bit OEM, it must be 64 bit OEM.
lol, i didnt even realised y_shun was flaming.... weird way to flame in such a way if he is indeed flaming, lol...... i didnt even get what hes trying to say, maybe he has a habit of climbing into his whatever cdkey...zzzzzz
yeah, i called MS, they only provide any form of support for retail package buyers, they fark care if you buy the OEM version.... sad but true.... great deal for treating their customers this way, after they purchased 170plus dollars worth of software. As if i am their bill gates, money dun come easily ok? They recommended me to REPAY and buy a double license, Quite pointless for me to call them, right?
Anyone got a backup cd image????? zzzz
I can pay him good money, and self collection
upon meetup i can also show him my LICENSE to show him that it is LEGAL..... zzzzz
smlj? when did i say TS is doing illegal stuff?
i am giving an alternative, since he got a REAL, GEUNINE CD KEY, he can always go get those 'rip' dvd version(aka u still need put the key inside) and put in his REAL, GEUNINE CD KEY, instead of asking people to lend him the disc when it is so troublesome.
No one's saying that.
I m just saying i do not want people to flame because of my reasons listed above.
snowfoxx, i think you mistook it.
