Dell OEM System Locked Preinstallation Added for Windows Vista and Windows 7

I'd been hassled by a subset of Microsoft MVPs for providing this guide however its a corner stone of the Windows Reinstallation Guide and one of the main reasons I designate this guide as "unofficial".

I have therefore compiled together complete information including download links to Windows Vista and Windows 7 Reinstallation media. This includes the OEM system locked preinstallation activation mechanism found in the Dell Windows Vista Reinstallation DVDs and Dell Windows 7 Reinstallation DVDs. These are now incorporated into the Windows Reinstallation Guide. For full instructions including the download links see:

  1. What .iso did you use? Is your license OEM or retail? What key are you using to activate, a generic key won't activate Windows 8.1 Professional.
