The one I purchased has XP, but it's possible it was upgraded to Home Premium. These are questions you need answered by the seller.

Hello Sally, I'm running Win7 on the one that I received. I asked for it in the search box and since this one was going to be the travel laptop I didn't want to spend extra money on it. As far as a warranty, I can't answer that question, but being that it's a refurb laptop I really don't think that they would even offer one, but you really should reach out to the seller to be sure. Good luck with your choice, but if you are looking for a good laptop and a GREAT price go ahead and buy this one.

My computer came with Windows 7 Professional as described in the advertisement. I sent a e-mail requesting Windows 7 (Pro) or I wouldn't accept it. They responded via e-mail and said this is a Windows 7 (Pro) computer. Which it was after receiving it. I suggest if you desire Windows 7 than e-mail them prior shipment and they will verify it. They are a good company to deal with and are willing to upgrade or just help out with any question.

Yes if you buy it from a reputable person. I love mine but had to go thru a lot to get it to stop shutting down on me bc it did not originally come with Windows 7. I returned one bc I did not read the fine print and bought one that came with NOTHING on it and returned to get one with Windows 7. And I was not happy with the company I got it from. It kept going into to sleep mode, turning off, whatever, and their reply was oh Windows 7 just does that sometimes!!! HUH!!! Had it wiped clean and still had to make sure some power setting were set right. I googled it and finally solved the problem myself. But I highly recomment an HP Compaq. I think running Windows 7 is the problem bc this one is old and meant to run XP.

It comes with Ubuntu, NOT Windows 7. The "L" at the end of the product number indicates it is a Linux product - or so I was told by the folks at Asus when I spoke with them. At that time (early August) they did not make a Windows 7 version in this machine.

mine is Windows 7 home premium. Depending on what is installed by HP they have 3 different Windows 7. attached is a link comparing what they do.I didn't want Windows 8 as too confusing. This HPE h8-1360t is an excellent very fast computer. I upgraded from Vista which I liked also. just copy and paste link. ihttp://news.softpedia.com/newsImage/Windows-7-Home-Premium-vs-Professional-vs-Ultimate-3.jpg/

It does in fact come with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. The description of the machine at the bottom that lists this as having Vista is incorrect. It is also factory refurnished by Sony and we currently only have 1 in stock.

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!

It is supposed to be brans-new, but if you read all the reviews some buyers, especially those who purchased from resellers, received laptops that were packaged as new but which turned out to be refurbished (this also happened with some purchased direct from Amazon -- Amazon made good when it was discovered -- problem is, it often wasn't discovered until the unit went sour and someone had to open it up.

The one I ordered was windows 7 Home premium Ultimate 64-bit with a version of Microsoft Office trial that does not expire, but if you update windows you have to delete the new version to keep using......I am very satisfied with this laptop, I electronics technician by trade. I have not had any complaints other than the onboard video card. As long as you are not gaming it is fine just don't like that I cant have my icons smaller with the 1366x768 limitation. plenty of speed and storage, also boots crazy fast. Even with the large amount of programs I have on it. Hope this helps.............

7 Home Premium is a 32 and 64 bit package, (2 discs). It is for the do it yourself person that builds their own. It can be transferred to another computer limited times. Example: I had one that was used every day, 3 years, finally became unusable. The next I built and used the OS from the latter. OEM: These are what retailers and builders use in their products, and add other software to it. They also have to provide support for the systems, example Dell. The OEM is "married" to the computer it is installed in, used only for that system and will not be genuine in any other. If it is installed in any other, Microsoft will not support it. IE. no up dates , nothing. You are also supposed to have a builders certificate to purchase this. Why this package is available to the public I do not know, with the restrictions it has. The price as you can see is taller for the full version.

I ordered 2 of these laptops last December and had no problems, one was stolen 2 weeks ago and the other I am still using. It is factory refurbished, I love this machine and yes it did have a warranty.

Mine came with XP which was described in the both the description and tech details. It appears they offer Windows 7 refurbs as well.

I returned it and got a Lenovo Yoga. It seems to be much better (except from the backlit keyboard of the XPS). I saw no point in buying something just to send to the factory with a warranty claim. I used to be a fan and recommend Dell to everyone. I will never buy a Dell again.

as far as I know, it was new & came in an HP box. it didn't say it was a refurb. i don't know the warranty off hand; i'd have to look up the info.

I got mine from a private seller on Amazon and had to transfer the warranty. The seller provided the details required for transfer. I had to get to the dell warranty website and submit the transfer request. You will need to contact the seller directly to obtain the transfer of warranty details (Original Owner FirstName, LastName, Zip, and Service Tag for your Dell XPS 15)

Nevermind - I've since put Windows 7 Home Premium on this computer and it runs like a champ. No slow-downs, slightly better battery life and quick boot up/shut-down times. I'm happy!

Mine came loaded with Windows 8 Pro, which is downgradable to Windows 7 Pro. You will need to find someone who know what they're doing with computers, or call HP and request Windows 7 restore media. The laptop is a very good machine though.
