    Does anyone here have a copy that could privide me?

    my HDD just died and i bought a new one, but i'd like to install an Alienware SO(Just luxury, nothing important) but i just cant find some1 near my home to have one and i just think some1 here could have it.

    Or it is better to do a clean install?

    What he said^ It's just a regular copy of Windows with the Alienware background on the login screen, and some wallpapers and user icons.
