I have bought a second hand computer and it has an illegal windows copy.
I have open license and I want to register it with my key.
I remember there was a small program you could download from Microsoft to
change the License key.
Can anyone point me the link please?

TIA

If I acquired a used computer, the first thing I would do with it
would be to reinstall the operating system cleanly. You have no idea
how the computer has been maintained, what has been installed
incorrectly, what is missing, what viruses and spyware there may be,
etc. I wouldn't want to live with somebody else's mistakes and
problems, possibility of kiddy porn, etc., and I wouldn't recommend
that anyone else do either.
 
Well, that's pretty freaking extreme, but Ken DOES make an excellent point...
I'd suggest you purchase a new, legal copy of Microsoft Windows, and
repartition/reformat and reinstall Windows. You'll sleep safer at night!
