Where to buy Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit

[CheezPizza12345]

Hello Eveyrone,

I have receltly been looking for Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit ever since I found out my copy was corrupt. I don't know where to buy it because where I bought it it is not available anymore. Any ideas? Online is good, but if it is a chain store, thats great.

- Thanks,
Cheez

what do you mean yours is corrupt?

if its a genuine copy you bought and the install media is corrupt/damaged you can download the iso and use the genuine key you bought

Didn't we just go through this?

Why, for the love of FSM...Win 7 Ultimate?

If you have a valid, legal, non-OEM key for it, you can maybe download the ISO from here.

Whenever I have installed Windows, it has always had a windows crash screen no matter how many times i wipe my ssd. The files are corrupt on the disk i think and I did buy it from amazon

So, from your post on Apr 27 (2 weeks ago) you had Win 7 Ultimate, and were preparing to overwrite a Win 10 install.

Why are you buying it again?

Hello USAFRet
I was repeatedly trying to install windows 7 ultimate with the disk I had before I knew it was corrupt. My last question is, is there any difference between Windows 7 Pro and Windows 7 Ultimate? Like I am talking about in terms of gaming, and speed.

1. If you in fact have a retail license from Amazon, you can almost certainly download the ISO from the link I posted above.

2. For gaming purposes, there is zero performance difference between Ultimate, Pro, or Home Premium.

Is there any difference in speed? And also USAFRet, thank you so much for all of the advice you have given me. I really appreciate it.

Zero difference in speed. It is the same OS, just with more features enabled.
Pro and above can access more RAM, and a bunch of Enterprise level features. Ultimate brings a bunch of other languages..

I don't have Windows 7 Ultimate but I want to buy a product key. Anyone know where I can get one and please be exact. I looked on Amazon, the microsoft store, newegg, Frys, I can't find one for sale anywhere.

Why Win 7 Ultimate? What does it have that you need, that justifies the extra price?

 

[PCDesignerR]

Its just that it was the legendary gaming OS in my days of college IT and I wanted to pick it up if I could.

There is zero gaming performance difference between Home, Pro, or Ultimate.
There is a significant price difference.

And as you have seen, may not be available anymore.

Would you say that Windows 8.1 Pro is a pretty solid gaming OS right now?

Yes, as is Win 8.1 Home.
Again, zero performance difference. Pro vs Home just includes some extra corporate level features. For extra money, of course.
