Windows 8 Dell Oem
When Windows 8 is installed, it automatically checks the BIOS and loads the product key during installation. When Windows 8 goes online for the first time, it checks the license and Windows is activated. I used the Dell DVD to do a clean install of Windows 8.1 on a new Optiplex 7020.
I recently purchased a Windows 8 Dell Inspiron and i've been a victim of a special type of virus that block me from booting windows 8. I can't even get to the windows login page. I tried to reinstall using a bootable windows 8 ISO file which i found on the net.
During the install process it asks me to enter a product key, but given dell bios based embedded product key how come it doesn't retrieve it automatically?
Do i need a specific dell recovery/ install disk which will retrieve the product key or am i doing something wrong??
My Dell laptop came with Windows 8 Single Language 64bit, the below sticker having product key got erased.
Contacted dell and they told product will be embeded inside Motherboard, I just need to run the Windows 8 Single Language 64bit setup and it will not ask for product key.

Here is the URL for Windows 8.1. I don't know if one for Windows 8.0 exists:
From there you can downdoad the Media Creation Tool for Windows 8.1. Using this tool you can download the ISO image and either burn it onto a DVD or write it to a USB stick.

For installation from the so-created media, you can use either a Windows 8 key or a Windows 8.1 key. If the key is embedded in your hardware, it will be automatically taken from there. Be sure do download the correct edition (non-Pro or Pro).
