    Windows upgrade


    A family friend had a very very old pc, with windows xp 2000 professional. I am in the process of reinstalling a clean version on windows 8.1 32 bit. Will they have to rebuy a license for windows 8.1?

    Also. My mom has an older computer about 5 years old with Windows 7. If I upgrade that windows to 10 even though it’s outside the “free” upgrade thing will she also have to buy a new key for activation?

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .
