    i posess a vista home premuim 32 bit oem key (one that came on the back of my dv7 laptop). I wish to have a original ISO image of the same version, so i can perform installs whenever necessary with the same key. or possibly a 64 bit OEM Original image,for i believe the key is the one and the same for both the versions. I am realitively new here, so any help will do. Thank You. :)

    i also believe getting the 64bit can be quite a hassle

    You can obtain images off technet if you know anyone with a technet subscription.

    Anytime upgrade discs also work but i've never seen a 64 bit one.

    Thank you, kind sir. I was just curious about the content of the PM, hence I asked for your assistance. I don't actually need what was in it. :)
