I am trying to do some work on a laptop (Win 8). HDD is completely dead so I can't read the product key from it. I am going to replace the HDD and reinstall Win 8 on it. How ever I know from experience I can't install 8 unless I have a product key.
I have read that Win 8 stores the key on the motherboard, and that when installing Win 8 it will pull the key from the motherboard.
Is this true? and will it work?
Thanks
