Hi, I got my ASUS ROG G751 Series G751JT-CH71 Gaming Laptop 2 weeks back and the 1 TB 7200 RPM Rotational HDD had bad sectors in it. I have given it for replacement and it was impossible to make recovery disks. I just bought a Corsair Force Series™ LX 512GB SATA 3 6Gb/s SSD and using it as the C Drive.

From what I have researched, I need a Windows 8.1 Core Single Language 64 Bit which I can install using generic keys from Microsoft and then activate it using the Windows Key in the BIOS of the system (I have retrieved the key as well).

I installed Windows 8.1 Pro in the above manner but the key that I have in my ROG did not work. The system said that I cannot use this key for this version of windows.

I have not been able to find an OEM ISO yet.

Can someone please tell me:

  • Which version of Window should I be looking for that will accept my key when I try to activate it?
  • Where do I download this version of Windows?


Thanks,
DAN

Thanks. I did download Windows 8.1 Single Language 64 Bit, then I used a generic key and here I am typing. Windows is still not activated. I did not check which Windows my machine was using. If someone could tell me which version comes with:
Model Number: G751JT-CH71
New Egg URL: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834232202

Please.

Thanks,
DAN
