WTB: Win 7 Pro x64 ISO or recovery disks for X201

#1 Post by RickG » Tue Dec 01, 2015 8:40 am

I need to rollback to Win 7 Pro on my X201 3626-F6U.

I'm way past the 30 day trial of Windows 10 and the hidden rollback directories no longer exist (nor does the recovery partition).

Tried using the COA on the laptop to download a copy of the Win 7 ISO direct from MS but no luck due to the OEM issue (as I've read about on the forums).

If you have a clean copy of either the Win 7 Pro x64 ISO or the recovery disk to sell please let me know.

Many thanks -

Rick

What's the "OEM issue"? I used a downloaded ISO of Win7 Pro with the COA on the computer and it worked fine.

Done that many times and never had an issue. Did you try putting in the key after installation?
