Is this a full version for a computer that has no operating system

Yes, the install offers an upgrade or to do a full (clean) install which is what I did. If you're putting an SSD and hard drive in to your machine, don't connect the hard drive until after the install if you want the OS to be on the SSD. The installer can get confused if you have more than one drive available.

From Microsoft's OEM website: "If you are building a system for your personal use or installing an additional operating system in a virtual machine, you will need to purchase Windows 8 software or a Microsoft retail version of Windows 8.1 software. Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 system builder software does not permit personal use, and is intended only for preinstallation on customer systems that will be sold to end users."Source: http://www.microsoft.com/oem/en/licensing/sblicensing/Pages/windows-licensing-for-personal-use.aspx#fbid=qSkdVovONY9

The operating system really isn't ever in question. This is a USB connection to a hard drive...pretty much ANY hard drive. If your system can read a thumb drive, it will be able to use this device.

Yes, you can use this full version on your newly made computer. you can also use a oem system builders edition, but id just go with which is cheaper. but for under $100 id get the full version.

This is the full version. I was installing it on a desktop PC that came with Vista but had earlier been upgraded to 7 with an upgrade copy. I had a frustrating time getting the full version to work and finally had an it friend at work install it. He was successful. Again, it is a full version.

No, this is a 2005 model. The newest OS it will run is Leopard. Some of mine are loaded with 10.5.8 Leopard. Plus loaded with apps, Office, Photoshop, iLife, and more. Please see my listings by clicking "see sellers' offer" below.

When I bought this it came without an operating system. I installed XP, but you can choose whatever suits. BTW its a great little computer. I mounted it to the back of a monitor. Very compact.

The OS is windows but for the life of me I can't remember. Ask if it came with certain programs and it might jog my memory. Sorry

It has the full version of windows 8. I have been able to install adobe illustrator, photoshop, etc.

As I read it, after I got it is NO. It will not update anything unless, you completely format your hard drive, since it is for new computers, and not an upgrade. That is what I wanted and when I got this I couldn't even understand what I was supposed to do. You have to buy another program to get ready to install this one. So my answer would be no upgrade for any operating system. I wanted it for XP, but have a Vista too, NADA, as I read it. I sent it back and Amazon is amazing in handling returns. Thanks Amazon.............

The laptop that I purchased came pre-loaded with the Windows 7 operating system....hope that helps. Let me know if you have any more questions.....Thanks.

It should, provided that the product key is valid. But why would you want to install a unsupported OS onto a new system?

Sorry to say the answer is NO. The system will not boot from CD/DVD or USB drive so no way to install any other Operating System

I havent seen a revo that comes without an operating system. But you can always put whatever you want on it just like a regular pc. or you can look at barebone htpc's

Yes,l this was the full version, not an upgrade. This is now several versions old. You may want to look for version 4 or 5.
