Does it come with a Windows Certificate of Authenticity and the original Windows disk?

It came with Windows installed, and also a generic disc. However, after about two months, I got a message that the Windows was not authentic. The disc would not re-install. I contacted tech support and they walked me through it remotely. It works fine now with "authenticated" Windows.

sorry, I guess you need to contact the seller and/or review the description of the items to see if the windows version was stated as genuine. When I purchased mine, the seller described the item as containing a genuine Windows operating system. Wish you luck!

NO, but you can follow these instructions first to make your Win 7 genuine. If you do find yourself with a non-genuine version of Windows after performing a hardware upgrade, replacing a failing component, or - in an extreme worst case scenario - upgrading a hardware driver or firmware that causes Windows to think you're using a new component, you'll need to activate Windows again with Microsoft. To re-activate a Windows 7 PC, you'll need to open the Windows Activation tool. To do so, click the Start button, type "Activate" into the Start menu, and click the Windows Activation shortcut. Select the "Show me other ways to activate" option and go through the wizard, selecting the "Use the automated phone system" option. You'll then be given a toll-free number you can dial. If everything goes properly, you'll be given a confirmation ID you can enter into the Windows Activation tool to make Windows genuine again. If the automated system fails, you'll be put on the line with a Microsoft customer service representative. Explain your situation and they'll hopefully allow you to re-active your installed copy of Windows, making it genuine again

I don't remember any. It is all on the drive. All I had to do was plug it in and it was recognized. Win7 64. Probably get it off of Seagate's web site too.

Mine came pre-loaded with windows 8, I didn't notice a serial key but it does have an easy backup system. Of course, free upgrade to windows 8.1.

It's preloaded with Windows 7 and comes with the restore disks for both Win 7 and 8. Hope this helps!

On the top of the computer there is a Certificate of Authenticity Label/sticker for Windows Home Premium OEM Software that has a Product Key and I assume the registration number as well. The on/off switch for the computer is on the top of the computer and the label is approximately 2 inches above it on my computer.

No, Windows is not installed when you receive the Hard Drive and you will need to provide your own copy of Windows

Yes it's justs plug and play and it's recognized by any OS. I use windows backup with no problems.The drive itself is amazingly fast! I'd say it has cut hours a week in productivity.

If the price is about 1,400.00, then yes - it's the full installation disc. Legit serial number, Flash, DreamWeaver, and everything. Go for it! Better than the cloud version, in my book.

The one i received did not come with a disk but did have windows installed, however it was not a licensed copy, it was what appeared to be a stolen copy or a copy that had been used too many times.

The one I received had a "legal" product key... meaning it was accepted by Microsoft when I activated the installation ...

Hi Galen, yes all Windows 7 computers we offer come with genuine and fresh copy of Windows 7 OS, an original installation disc and a COA license sticker applied on tower. The Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is a special security label that means it is a licensed Microsoft software. Your computer will always check for updates automatically and install as they are released from Microsoft.
