Hello all
I have a desktop that was running Windows 8 until the boot loader or something got deleted. So I went back to Windows 7 on that.
Before I use my windows 8 upgrade that I bought last October on the desktop, I would like to know if there is any known way to use it in Bootcamp. Reason I ask is that I already bought it and don't really like it on my desktop.
Can I fool the system into thinking its the regular OS? Talking with Microsoft support trying to fix my desktop they said it is possible, however it required the $99 advanced support and a Microsoft tool to install (gimmick!) so I said no to that as I can easily get an OEM copy of Windows 8 for $99. Someone out there has to know how to do this!
