    Installing Windows on a new PC


    I am looking to install windows on my new PC using my old windows 8.1 key. I have upgraded to windows 10 with my free upgrade on my old PC. When making the installation USB, https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 This link says I need a windows 10 license. Will my windows 8.1 key work for the windows 10 installation USB download?

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
