Hey guys,

About 3 months ago I installed windows 8 pro through the upgrade assistant, pretty sure I had the deal where it wad about $40?

Basically I had to get my hard drive replaced as it broke now im back to the stock windows 7, and in desperate need of getting windows 8 back, but im not sure how to do it.

Ice downloaded the upgrade assistant again but its just giving me the options of which one to buy, which I dont need because ive already purchased it.

Its not coming up in my purchase history on the Microsoft/windows website wither, and I dont find the email I had when I purchased it.

I rung customer service and they said they can help me, but only after a £130 technical charge which I will NOT be paying seeing as ive already bought it!

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks!

As theog says, this should be the pertinent tutorial: Windows 8 Upgrade ISO - Download or Create. If you need UEFI support, then your downloaded ISO, what would need to be 64 bit, may not have the support. If not, then use option 2 in the tutorial.
