If you had to enter the generic key, manually change the generic product key to the W8 key in your PC's BIOS in the PC settings menu.Īfter you get W8.1 installed, and you had to manually enter the W8.1 generic product key, you will need to run the free utility I zipped up and attached below, that will show you the W8 product key in your PC's BIOS. Click Next, and W8.1 should begin to install. When you get to the screen that asks 'Where do you want to install Windows,' delete every partition on the hard drive, leaving just one partition of unallocated space. This is the generic key for W8.1 Single Language. If you are asked to enter a product key during the installation process, use this generic key. Install W8.1 by creating the Microsoft installation media, using another Windows PC, if yours is not working.You want W8.1 Single Language 64 bit.

You can install W8.1 SL for free using your notebook's W8 product key that is in the BIOS, as follows. Hi, are no versions of W8 available for download.
