    Hi,

    just bought the T440s with Win 7 preload and Win 8 DVDs. Tried installing win8 but the dvds were probably faulty and Windows did not install properly. So now I am with a computer and cannot use it really. Maybe I could just order new DVDs but it will take too much time. Could I somehow make a USB with Win8? In Microsoft website there is an option to make a windows USB but it requires the CD key which is not written anywhere on the computer. Any ideas how to solve this?
