What folders are contained in win7 install disk?

[marc_moose]

Im borrowing a friends win7 ultimate install disk which is a downloaded version (don't shoot). There is a keygen on there to activate windows after it has installed, but I have to take this off before I try to install Win7 to my new PC as this extra file would surely play havok with the install. Can someone tell me what folders should be contained on the disk so I know which one to remove before install? thanks guys!

Edit: The current folders on my disk are 'Boot, EFI, Sources, Support, Upgrade. Also on the disk is 'Autorun, Bootmgr, and Setup'

Thanks again!

Forget about your friend's install disk... download your ISO from an Official and reliable source.. find the download link here:

boot
en-us
efi
fonts
sources
support
upgrade

But I agree with above. Scrap the disk and download a new one! Keygens and malware go malware go hand in hand. Even if you delete the keygen and scan for viruses you have no idea what has potentially been done to the rest of the files. For example it wouldn't take a genius script a firewall exception into the install and leave you at their mercy once online. I could do this myself and I'm practically a novice in the area.

You can download official Windows 7 ISO straight from DigitalRiver, an official Microsoft partner, for completely free. This site has links to them all - http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-sp1-iso-from-digital-river/

Of course you still need a valid and LEGAL licence key to activate...

I can't afford to buy windows as sad as it is, I spent all my money on parts :/

Marc, consider using a Linux kernel (Such as Ubuntu) with Wine. It isn't exactly as easy as just using Windows, but it's free and legal. This can at least be something until you get money for Windows.

Or consider FreeBSD which looks and works like Windows and accepts windows applications.. There is a LiveCD edition ISO which you can enjoy without having to install..

BTW... you can install Windows 7 without a product key and use it for a 30 day trial period. Maybe you'll have saved up enough to pay the inexpensive price for the Home Edition before the 30 trial period is up.

Check FreeBSD
